the ingredients are not toxic as other repellent and all natural. no funny business like hidden listing. when I tend the garden, this is a must apply, otherwise, i get bitten

I love this stuff! Every summer, the relentless Texas mosquitoes infiltrate my house if there's been any rain and I don't shut the door quick enough coming and going outside. I invariably get woken up several times a night by the buzzing and biting. Until I found this spray, that is. The smell is strong, but not at all unpleasant to me, and I think it's part of what keeps the skeeters at bay. We've had a couple scorching weeks with no rain and I didn't have the mosquito problem until this week, when I overwatered my withering plants in an attempt to have a little water left in the plant dish to create some humidity for them. Of course, the mosquitoes arrived the next night. I forgot to put the spray on that night, since I hadn't been using it for a couple weeks, and woke up to buzzing in my ear and several bites on my exposed arm. I immediately got up and sprayed a tiny squirt on my fingertips to dab on my cheeks, chin and sides of face, very sparingly. I spritzed a few light sprays on my arms also, then straight back to bed and not one more disturbance or bite. Best yet, the bite I'd already gotten was almost completely gone in the morning! This stuff somehow removes the sting AND takes the swelling down. No itching whatsoever in the morning, and I usually itch for days from mosquito bites, which swell up hugely, as well. It's kind of high priced, but it contains no DEET and works better than anything else I've ever tried. I read the review of the person who said there's bad stuff in it, so I checked out the underlabel to find that it's made to use on skin and clothing, but we should not spray directly on our faces. Duh. Also, we need to keep it out of the reach of kids and pets. It causes "substantial injury" to eyes, so don't get it in them. Oh, we should also not swallow it. Hopefully, this is all no-brainer stuff to anybody with even a couple of brain molecules rolling around. Since it's DEET (poison) free, I do not understand why the customer was alarmed at the ingredients.

I am an allergy person with lots of allergies and have to take care more than normal what i use - at that point i did not took care enough for myself. i used it cause i had 2 mosquitos in my bedroom and could not get rid of them for over 8 days so i was thinking okay i take this oils and make it on my skin and thats it. The Scent is (for me and my dogs) really heavy, my dogs went out of my bedroom cause of that scent and that mean a lot to me and after i had it on my skin it began to itching and burning without ending, so i had to wash it away quickly - my face was red like a tomato after that and it hurted a lot. So i took the bottle and wanted to know whats in side - 30% oils and 70% unknown - so that unknown declaration is chemical i guess - and the scent in my bedroom was so heavy that i sleept on my couch in the livingroom and had to open all the windows over night what is in florida not usual like you can imagine. so i am not with that product and i took it away, can not send it back. No money back garanty if you are allergic against it. Thats Life.... Be careful about your health and the health of your family - i am not recommend this product - sorry!

Oily and has a strong smell. Worked a little but ended up buying something different because of it.

It has to be freshly applied. My husband and I sit on the porch together in the morning and have coffee every day. It’s like he doesn’t even frigging exist, as far as the mosquitos are concerned. I, on the other hand, set one toe out the door and those mfs are on me like it’s their job. Which, I guess, it is. Anyway, the spray stops them dead. They get close, go “what the hell is THAT,” and fly away. I’d say it lasts maybe half an hour, forty-five minutes before I have to reapply. I’d really like it to come in a bottle that sprays upside-down, because holding it upright when you’re trying to get your legs is difficult. I do have to get total coverage; if I miss a spot the little a-holes find it. Considering how much I’ve already gone through, it’d be nice if it were a little less expensive. But whatever, it works and we can sit on the porch and silently judge the neighbors in peace. Also, Amazon asked me to review this product for its “thickness” and its “warmth.” I don’t know what that means.
