Syneresis is regarded as an instability phenomenon and also described as the “spontaneous contraction of a gel, accompanied by the expulsion of liquid from the pores” [ 21]. This has been reported in some protein and polysaccharide gels, including carrageenan [ 22]. In addition, formula IV 5°C exhibited the highest syneresis and pH of 75.34% in 72 h and 7.35, respectively, suggesting the prominent instability under low temperatures. Furthermore, the highest and most significantly different pH was attained in formula IV, while formula I exhibited a comparably higher instability at 35°C, with a syneresis of 77.11% in 72 h, with a pH value of 5.47. However, formula VI showed the least rate amongst all, at 5°C and 35°C. Although potpourri is made from natural organic products that aren’t harmful, a parrot might still find the scent unpleasant if it is too strong, so don’t put it next to the bird’s cage and monitor its response.

Spider expert and enthusiast Dr Geoff Oxford, honorary secretary of The British Arachnological Society (britishspiders.org.uk), explains that just a dozen or so out of Britain’s 670 spider species have jaws powerful enough to break human skin and, potentially, inject venom. But he stresses they’re not aggressive to humans, and will only attempt to bite as a last resort – and even then, most authenticated spider bites produce little or no reaction. Additionally, you can make a spray by combining 15 drops of Citronella with 1 tablespoon of grain alcohol in a glass spray bottle and 3 tablespoons of distilled water to the mixture and spray it onto surfaces and in the air. Holland says spiders hide in corners and small spaces because they don’t like to be in the open, so keeping your home uncluttered and clean can help keep spiders away. “Keeping rooms organised and clean will reduce the chance of a spider putting up a web, and cleaning will remove the dust and small insects and food particles that attract the spiders inside,” he says. You can make potpourri with various fresh-smelling components, including flowers, citrus slices, spices, and parrot-safe essential oils like lavender and eucalyptus. When blended together, this mixture creates an aroma that is both calming and uplifting. It can help to reduce feelings of stress, anxiety, and tension. It can also promote feelings of wellbeing and relaxation.

Lavender oil is known for its calming and soothing properties, and its ability to help induce sleep. Citronella oil can be blended with other oils to create powerful synergistic effects. Citronella blends well with:

However, Oxford argues that while having a bare, uncluttered house will certainly reduce the number of niches spiders can occupy, there’s nothing to suggest they deliberately come into homes, and he points out they eat living prey rather than food particles. “There’s no evidence that dust or food particles serve to attract spiders inside,” he says.

Though it may require more frequent application than chemical-based repellents, it's a great way to protect yourself without exposing yourself to toxins. How to use Citronella essential oil?Convenient and mess-free application: The attached rollerball allows for precise application without wasting a single drop.

For non-arachnophobes, it’s hard to understand why so many people can’t stand spiders. They are tiny (even large British house spiders have a leg span of up to just 6-7cm) and very unlikely to harm you. Add a few drops of bird-safe essential oil and put the mixture inside an oven, setting the temperature to 275 degrees Fahrenheit. Targeted application: The rollerball allows you to apply your oils directly to targeted areas, ensuring maximum efficacy for specific concerns. It is a powerful pain reliever and anti-inflammatory, and is even used topically to target muscle spasms, tension in the joints, and even headaches.

How to Use Citronella Essential OilThe respiratory sensitivity of birds is a double-edged sword. While it’s beneficial for flight, it makes birds far more vulnerable to environmental contaminants that are inconsequential to us. But Oxford says there’s no proof this will work. “Nothing wrong with doing this, but there’s absolutely no evidence that this or any other ‘remedy’ e.g. extract of conkers, will repel spiders.”
