Anti-inflammatory
Citronella Java essential oil is particularly renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties, mainly due to the presence of esters in its composition. Applied topically, it offers significant relief from skin inflammation. This essential oil is particularly effective in calming redness, soothing irritation and accelerating the healing of insect bites. Its use reduces skin discomfort and promotes rapid recovery, while preventing secondary infections in affected areas. Its targeted, gentle action makes it a preferred choice for the treatment of sensitive, irritated skin.
Repellent
Java citronella is widely acclaimed for its effectiveness as a natural insect repellent, thanks to its high citronellal content. This active ingredient effectively repels insects, particularly mosquitoes, preventing the inconvenience and health risks associated with their bites. Its characteristic scent, though pleasant for humans, is unbearable for many insects, making it an ideal ally in the protection of living spaces and pets. In addition to its repellent action, it helps create a protective barrier around the animal, considerably reducing the risk of parasitic infestations and the diseases they can carry.
Antiseptic, Deodorant, Sanitizer
The terpene aldehydes contained in Citronella Java essential oil give it exceptional antiseptic, deodorizing and sanitizing properties. Its purifying action plays a crucial role in eliminating germs and bacteria from air and surfaces, helping to maintain a healthy environment for pets and their owners. Its deodorizing power is particularly appreciated for neutralizing unpleasant odors, providing long-lasting freshness and cleaner air. This essential oil is therefore ideal for treating ambient air in homes, veterinary clinics and animal shelters, ensuring a clean, pleasant atmosphere.
Antibacterial
The antibacterial efficacy of Java citronella essential oil is mainly attributed to the presence of compounds such as citronellal and geraniol. These molecules are capable of disrupting the integrity of bacterial cell membranes, inhibiting their growth and reproduction. This preventive action is essential to protect animals against a multitude of potential bacterial infections that can affect their health. Using this oil in the pet environment helps create a protective barrier against pathogens, reducing the risk of disease and promoting animal well-being.
Fungicide
Citronella Java essential oil also has notable fungicidal properties, thanks to active compounds such as citronellal and geraniol. These substances are particularly effective against pathogenic fungi, including candida albicans, which is responsible for various fungal infections in animals, such as candidiasis. By applying this essential oil, fungal infections can be effectively treated and prevented, contributing to the animal's overall health. Its ability to target and eliminate pathogenic fungi makes it a valuable tool in the management of fungal infections, supporting the resilience and vitality of pets.
Intestinal antiparasitic
Finally, the use of Citronella Java essential oil as an intestinal antiparasitic in dogs and cats demonstrates its beneficial role in maintaining the gastrointestinal health of animals. The active molecules present in this essential oil disrupt the life cycle of intestinal parasites, preventing their development and reproduction. This helps preserve the balance of intestinal flora and protect animals against the digestive disorders often caused by these parasites. Its anti-parasitic action also helps to strengthen the animals' immune system, enabling them to better resist infection and maintain optimal health.
