Beyond the listing
Parents appreciate this plant-based spray as a gentler alternative to chemical repellents, especially for young children who put things in their mouths. Most report it works reasonably well for mosquito prevention in typical backyard settings, though effectiveness varies and it is not a complete solution in areas with very heavy mosquito populations.
Holds up elsewhere
- safe for babies and sensitive skin
- no chemical sprays on skin
- easy application on clothes
- light non-greasy feel
- good customer service
Comes up as a drawback
- not fully effective in high mosquito areas
- less powerful than DEET products
- may need multiple patches for adults
