Words by Anny Schneider

Also called neem oil, Indian neem oil is recognized for its great antibacterial, antifungal and insect repellant properties (especially used against fungi, lice and bedbugs).

It is a very thick dark oil which can solidify at a temperature below 25 degrees (possibly reheat in a water bath before use).

It has a very pronounced odor. Ideally diluted in other more fluid vegetable oils for easier application and antifungal essential oils with a more pleasant fragrance (lavender, lithe, tea tree or palmarosa).

Not very sensitive to oxidation.

More information

The neem tree or neem tree or even neem (from "nim" in Bengali) is a tree native to India.

It usually grows up to 20m tall but can sometimes reach 40m.

It is persistent except in periods of great drought when it protects itself by losing its leaves.

The flowers appear in January-May.

The fruits that will give neem oil are kind of small olives.

In India, neem leaves are dried and placed in cupboards to prevent insects from eating clothes, and also in boxes where rice is stored.

Burning the dried leaves helps repel mosquitoes.

Neem is considered an invasive plant in many parts of the world, including parts of the Middle East or sub-Saharan Africa, such as West Africa and the states bordering the Indian Ocean, as well as parts from Australia.

In April 2015, A. indica was declared a class B and C invasive plant in the Northern Territory of Australia.

This decision makes it mandatory to control its growth and propagation, and prohibits the purchase, sale and transport of plants and propagules throughout the territory.

This action was taken following the invasion of waterways in the Top End area.

 

In Ayurvedic medicine it is already evoked around 2500 years before our era and it is named as "which gives good health" (nimbati swastyamdadati) or "which cures leprosy" (pichumarda).

 

Neem is the source of a patent filed by Larson on knowledge thousands of years old. The patent has been revoked and is cited as an example of biopiracy.
