There are a lot of rumors (some true, some false) about Eucalyptus. Is it safe for pets? Can it be diffused, used topically, or used in cleaning? I think it is time to set the record straight...

What is Eucalyptus Essential Oil?

Eucalyptus is a powerhouse for respiratory support and has both cleansing and immune booting properties as well. Emotionally, Eucalyptus can be very calming during stressful events. It is a great option for animals exhibiting frustration, anger, or clingy behavior.

This oil is one of Dr Roarks go-to oils to include in recipes such as respiratory support sprays & diffuser blends, muscle rubs, DIY bug sprays, and more!

Eucalyptus is not always the best choice for some small animals, check out how to use this oil with animals below ↓↓↓

Using Eucalyptus Essential Oil with Animals:
For horses, cattle, and goats - apply topically by dropping 4-6 drops over the chest for respiratory support, or directly to an area of concern such as tense muscles. Eucalyptus EO can be diluted to cover a larger area but is not required for large farm animals.
For dogs - Diffuse 2-3 drops in a water-based diffuser for respiratory support. For topical use, dilute to 1% (2 drops per 10 mL carrier oil) and apply a small amount to your hands apply to the area of concern.
For cats - Use caution around cats with sensitive respiratory tracts. Leave door open when diffusing so your cat has the option to leave the room. Not recommended for topical use with cats as a single oil.
Avoid or use caution with very young animals and seizure-prone animals.
Need help with dilution for topical use? Check out page 15 of the Free Essential Oils & Safety for Animals booklet for a full dilution guide.
