A composition for a sterilizing solution and a method of use thereof intent to provide the user a sterile lubricant for a chainsaw/bandsaw machine, such that they inhibit the spread of tree infections from one tree to another during the process of cutting multiple trees. Preferably, the sterilizing solution includes essential oils that contain terpenes, carvacrol, eugenol, thymol, and other anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral elements. Further, the method of application provides the user the ability to continuously cut one tree after another without the potential danger of spreading an infection from one tree to another tree. Additionally, the method enables users to apply the sterilizing solution over cutting blades as well as over cut tree stumps, thereby sterilizing the surfaces, repelling bugs and preventing infections that are associated with the tree cutting process. Furthermore, the sterilizing solution is a plant-based biodegradable sterilizer that does not harm the environment when used.
