Non-cineole oil producing species:

Commercial cineole based eucalyptus oils are produced from several species of Eucalyptus:

The Australian eucalyptus oil industry peaked in the 1940s; then the global establishment of eucalyptus plantations for  resulted in increased volumes of eucalyptus oil as a plantation by-product. By the 1950s the cost of producing eucalyptus oil in Australia had increased so much that it could not compete against cheaper Spanish and Portuguese oils. Non-Australian sources now dominate commercial eucalyptus oil supply, although Australia continues to produce high grade oils of mainly blue mallee, E. polybractea.

French chemist, , identified and ascribed the name eucalyptol - now more often called  - to the dominant portion of E. globulus oil. By the 1870s oil from Eucalyptus globulus, Tasmanian blue gum, was being exported worldwide and eventually dominated world trade, while other higher quality species were also being distilled to a lesser extent.  were using eucalyptus oil as an during  by the 1880s.

Baron , Victorian botanist, promoted the qualities of Eucalyptus as a  in 'fever districts', and also encouraged Joseph Bosisto, a  , to investigate the commercial potential of the oil. Bosisto started the commercial eucalyptus oil industry in 1852 when he built a  plant near , , Australia.

Because of their low body weight, children are more vulnerable to poisons. Severe poisoning has occurred in children after ingestion of 4 mL to 5 mL of eucalyptus oil.

The probable lethal dose of pure eucalyptus oil for an adult is in the range of 0.05 mL to 0.5 mL/per kg of body weight.

If consumed internally at low dosage as a flavouring component or in pharmaceutical products at the recommended rate, eucalyptus oil is safe for adults. However, eucalyptus oil in its pure form is poisonous according to dosage.

Research shows that cineole based eucalyptus oil (5% of mixture) prevents the separation problem with  and   blends. Eucalyptus oil also has a respectable  and can be used as a fuel in its own right. However, production costs are currently too high to be economically viable as a fuel.
