What is Citronella Essential Oil?
Citronella is a grass that mainly grows in some Asian countries and some islands of the South Pacific. It has a rich, crisp lemony aroma and thus bears the name citronella. The essential oil of citronella is extracted from two varieties of citronella. The first one is the Ceylon variety, whose scientific name is Cymbopogon nardus and the second one is Java variety, called Cymbopogon winterianus in botanical terminology. In both cases, the essential oil is extracted by steam distillation of the fresh plant.Citronella Essential Oil Nutrition
While the first variety yields an oil whose main components are citronellol, citronellal, geraniol, limonene, and methyl isoeugenol, the oil obtained from the second variety contains citronellal, geraniol, geranyl acetate, and limonene as its chief constituents, with geraniol and citronellal higher in concentrations than the former variety. Hence, the oil obtained from the Java variety is considered to be higher quality. The main producers of this essential oil are China and Indonesia. This oil is also produced by certain other Asian, South & Latin American and African countries in smaller amounts.

I'm reordering for the 2nd time. I put this on my dogs dry dog food and they love it. I have a Yorkie that has skin allergies and has lost about 1/2 of his hair. The vet sold me some allergy medicine and it helped somewhat, but I decided to try this oil and after several months my little guy's skin wasn't dry anymore and his hair started growing back. It's soft and shiny and the smell on his skin is gone. It used to be pretty stinky. Also , my bird dog type mutt tore his ACL and the vet was afraid he might need surgery. I believe this has helped him recover.– Jant
