7. Tea Tree: Powerful Support for Pet Skin Health

• Boost the immune system
• Clean the air of allergens
• Improve mood and reduce stress

Use these blends in a diffuser or on your pet's bed, not directly on their skin. Keep your pet out of the sun after using citrus oils, as they can make skin sensitive to light.
