Customer Reviews

Mosquitoes hate it. Japanese beetles love it.
It's true that this nice-smelling (though really oily and hard to apply) repellent keeps the bugs from biting. But it doesn't stop them from trying to mate with your head -- if they're Japanese beetles. Ick. So if it's JB season, use something else. Hate to say it, because I love Burt's Bees products.

Alaskan Wildlife
I bought this bug spray to combat the amount of mosquitoes there are in the Alaskan atmosphere, and was pretty pleased with it. I especially liked the scent, which is citrus and zippy, much nicer than your typical lumberjack scented bug repellent. I wouldn't reccomend it to someone canvassing the rain forests, but it's a good basic repellent for daily use or picnics or something where you don't want to smell like you were coated in DEET beforehand. It comes in a cute metal bottle with a spray nozzle, but it doesn't produce a mist of spray, you'll actually apply this more like a handful of tanning oil or lotion, with your hand.

review to keep the buggies away
I used this insect repellent while I was building a maze for a fundraiser. It really keeped me safe from the misquitoes of southern Mississippi. And it has no nasty chemical smell, like other repellents. It just smells of lemon oil.

It is a little oily, but alot goes a very long way.
