<div>Hi, Kevin<br><br>as far as I know, the best home made mosquito repellent is made from these organic essential oils:</div>
<ul>
<li>20 drops essential oil Basil
<li>30 drops essential oil Lemongrass or Citronella
<li>10 drops esential oil Eucalyptus
<li>100 ml basic oil Jojoba </li></li></li></li></ul>
<div>Hope this helps!<br><br>Best,<br>Bojca<br><br></div>

<div class="h5">Hi Tom,<br>I had a tip from Crispin and have used dried orange, mandarine and other citrus peels for starters. When they are well-dried, you note the presence of oils and they burn quite nicely. I have not had enough volume to try running one of my gasifier stoves on them alone, but they work great as a starter-- you can use them in place of starter fluid or paste or the like.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I've had an inquiry from Southern Africa about orange peels. Does anyone have experience carbonizing or gasifying orange peels?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do the burn in a TLUD?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Do they make gas in an ARTI style compact digester?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Can you char them? ( If you can char an apple or a pizza I guess you can char an orange.)</p>
