A better question would be more of what oils are not toxic. It's going to be difficult for someone to actually tell you a certain oil is toxic without opening possible debate. Unless the oil has actually been clinically tested you really don't know and anything else is just a personal opinion. Many different oils however have been proven to be more safe than others however. Mineral oil, vegetable oil. Clove oil has been used for mite treatment however it's also been used as a anesthesia and can be fatal in high doses. Just for the record it really don't work as an anesthesia it causes slight nerve paralysis making it appear anesthetized. I'm actually curious what answers you'll receive too.
