In recent decades, a plant native only to Australia has been found to have amazing natural properties that make it quite useful as a treatment for many health issues. It also possesses a high level of versatility that allows it to also perform quite well in a number of household maintenance functions. Tea Tree essential oil is considered to be among the most beneficial products of this type.

Made from the leaves which grow on these incredible trees, it should not be confused with those that are harvested from plants and used to make beverages. This particular product is one that should never be taken internally, only topically or through aromatherapy techniques. Because of its potency, it needs to be kept in a bottle made of dark glass to protect it from being weakened by the sun, and is not for use on infants six months old or less.

This product exudes an aroma that is fresh and reminiscent of camphor, a tad sharp yet quite soothing. It possess a number of natural anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, antibiotic and antiseptic properties which all lend to its super versatility factor. When used in its purest form, a small amount is extremely potent, though for topical use, it is highly recommended that it be diluted with a carrier such as olive or vegetable oils.

When it comes to skin issues, this solution is very effective at soothing the itchiness associated with rashes, scabies and psoriasis. Mixing it with aloe vera gel and using it as a toner can help clear acne and reduce the appearance of any scars one may have. The sting of sunburn is almost instantly relieved by this mixture and it can soothe the skin so the burn can heal faster.

Fungal infections such as athletes foot or those that appear on toenails can be cleared up quickly with this type of treatment. Ring worms and skin tags disappear when saturated with the substance several times a day for a week or so. Mixing a few drops of this item, with equal parts Frankincense and Lavender in a diluted form, can make a wart die and fall off when the mixture is applied twice a day and covered with a bandage for about 2-3 weeks.

A few drops mixed with shampoo can prevent dandruff and repel lice, while mixing with water and spraying on pet beds can keep fleas away and ticks drop off easily when in contact with it. When diffused for aromatherapy purposes, individuals may experience relief from issues such as pulmonary inflammation, bronchial congestion, coughs and asthma. Earaches, rashes, cuts, abrasions, insect bites and a number of household cleaning tasks may also be addressed with this versatile product.
