In fact, Australians use it for several health reasons including healing wounds, fighting infections, and muscle ache relief. There are several other practical uses for eucalyptus oil.

Hot Tubs – Many people don’t have time to properly maintain their hot tub. This causes many skin and respiratory illnesses. By using some eucalyptus oil you can help keep it clean.
Sticky Objects – This can apply to many objects that are sticky. For example if you have a little one that likes to put tape, stickers, or glue all over the house it can help remove the adhesiveness of the residue.
