ARE ESSENTIAL OILS SAFE TO USE AROUND PETS? We should always exercise caution when using essential oils around our pets. Keep all essential oil and aromatherapy products (like diusers) out of reach of pets. Keep open bottles away from pets to avoid internal consumption. We do not recommend the topical use of essential oils on pets, as they have a strong sense of smell and cannot get rid of the oil if they don’t like it or it is disturbing them. When diusing essential oils around pets, always diuse in a well-ventilated area and leave an option for them to remove themselves from the space, such as leaving a door open. Every animal is dierent, so carefully observe how each animal responds when introducing an essential oil for the rst time. If irritation occurs, discontinue the use of the essential oil. We recommend seeking medical attention if ingestion of essential oil occurs.
