Using Bosistos Eucalyptus Oil safely
Undiluted, this is a poison if swallowed. Eucalyptus oil accounts for roughly 46% of essential oil poisoning calls to the NSW Poisons Information Centre, and 63% of those exposures involve someone under 15 - a dose of 5ml or more can cause serious central nervous system depression in a child. Most childhood exposures happen through a vaporiser left at floor level. Keep the bottle and any vaporiser well out of reach, do not swallow it, do not apply it neat to skin, and seek medical advice immediately if any is swallowed rather than waiting for symptoms. It is also toxic to dogs and cats.
Common uses
Steam inhalation for a blocked nose, diluted massage for muscular aches, removing sticky residue and tar, freshening laundry and carpet, and deterring dust mites. Browse more first aid supplies, or see related medical supplies at MediBC.
Bosistos Eucalyptus Oil FAQs
What is Bosistos Eucalyptus Oil used for?
Relief of cold and flu symptoms and muscular aches, plus household jobs - lifting gum, tar, adhesive and stains, deodorising, and freshening laundry and carpet.
Is it 100% pure?
Yes, it is 100% pure eucalyptus oil with nothing added. That is also why it must be diluted before it touches skin and never swallowed.
Is eucalyptus oil poisonous?
Yes, if swallowed. As little as 5ml of undiluted oil can cause significant central nervous system depression in a young child, and a teaspoon can be life threatening. Store it out of reach and seek medical advice straight away if any is swallowed.
Is it safe around pets?
No. Eucalyptus oil is toxic to dogs and cats, whether swallowed, applied to fur or breathed in from a diffuser. Keep it away from animals and do not diffuse it in rooms they use.
What is the difference between the 175ml and 500ml?
Only the bottle size. The 175ml is the usual household bottle; the 500ml is the bulk option for heavier or workshop use.
