On the review of another member, I went out and bought this, since we did a bit of traveling to warmer areas this month. I definitely agree, I think I lost most of the noses in my hair when I sprayed this in the camper- definitely something I will be spraying OUTDOORS next time. That said, it's amazing! We were hiking, and sweating a ton (mmm mosquito food) but we didn't have any bug problems, and we didn't even have to stop and put more on! I really like that it's chemical free as well, makes me feel a lot better about using it on my 2 year old.

This stuff is great when you are outdoors during mosquito and tick season. It has all natural ingredients such as soybean oil, eucalyptus oil, and lemongrass oil. The smell is extremely potent, so never put it on in an enclosed area, it will burn off your nose hairs! Seriously though, the smell is so strong it may repel humans as well as the bugs. However, every time I have used this I haven't received a single bug bite, and I was in a lot of insect-filled areas. It doesn't come off when you sweat either, so it works great for summer outings. I would recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to use any DEET products on their skin or their children's skin. This is completely safe and no chemicals are involved at all. It is a great solution for repelling insects.
