Green leaf / leaves of the fever tree (eucalyptus) on tree in early summer
More than 50 species of eucalyptus are used to obtain strong-smelling essential oils by steam distillation of the leaves and twigs. The chemical composition and physiological effect of the essential oils depend on the eucalyptus species. The various species of eucalyptus are not suitable for children under six years of age or for most animals due to their ingredients. In large quantities, they are also toxic to adult humans. Eucalyptus oil is used in bee care as an active ingredient against mite infestation.
