Discover how the Ojibwe people developed one of nature’s most effective insect repellents—long before modern chemistry existed. Using sacred wiingashk, or sweetgrass, Ojibwe families survived summer mosquito swarms through a brilliant combination of smoke science, botanical knowledge, and ceremonial respect.
This episode reveals how sweetgrass smoke releases compounds proven to repel mosquitoes more efficiently than DEET-based sprays. You’ll explore how traditional Ojibwe practices balanced protection, spirituality, and sustainability—harvesting sweetgrass with prayer and gratitude to maintain harmony with nature.
Modern survival experts and entomologists are rediscovering these ancestral techniques, applying them in wilderness survival, camping, and military field training. Through careful research and respect for Ojibwe cultural teachings, this film connects ancient wisdom with modern science—showing that indigenous knowledge often holds the key to sustainable solutions we’re only beginning to understand.
