Since essential oils are not diluted, much more essential oil is utilized during operation. Essential oil diffusers are probably the best way to experience the benefits of essential oils. There are many different methods of diffusing essential oils and many essential oil diffusers available to choose from. Diffusers can be moved from one room to the next, making it possible to purchase only 1-2 diffusers to address mold in an entire home or building.
The easiest method to diffuse an essential oil is to open the bottle of the essential oil. When you do this, wave your open hand over the top of the bottle and inhale from the air you are wafting from the bottle. You can also put the oil in a bowl and sniff directly from the bowl. Avoid directly sniffing out of the bottle. Essential oils are very strong and may cause strong reactions.
These diffusers, which can be bought at many different department stores, are highly porous. They allow the essential oils to diffuse first into the stone and then into the air. These can be placed or hung wherever they can be most useful, such as high traffic areas or in a doorway. People walking by will cause waves of air to move by the diffusers.
Electric fan diffusers are available in a wide variety of sizes, shapes, and styles. These typically come with pads that are used to soak up the oils. The oils can evaporate quickly on these, but the pads are changeable.
Nebulizers and atomizers are like humidifiers. They break up the oil into smaller droplets so they diffuse more easily. These usually contain two basic components, a base that contains the motor for the nebulizer and a glass or plastic bowl where the essential oil is placed.
