How to Mix Cedar Oil Spray for Dogs

Cedar wood oil is used in shampoos, lotions and other body products to help with skin dryness. Cedar also is a natural insect repellent used to keep bugs off clothing and blankets. When a small amount of cedar wood oil is mixed in a spray, it will keep insects away and soften a dog's skin.
