Worked surprisingly well in Anchorage | |
| Rating: | |
| My best friend purchased this herbal bug spray for our trip to Alaska last June. I was very curious to find out if it actually worked. The thing I first noticed about this bug spray was how yummy it smelled! It has a lemony aroma and I found myself thinking about using this as my daily scent. (I don't.) Ok, so it smells nice, but did it work? Mostly yes! Both my friend and I were just a little surprised when in Anchorage the skeeters didn't bite us even once! Unfortunately it was a different story in Denali. I don't know if it was because we had become lazy as far as applying the spray, or if there was a much higher number of mosquitos (or a different kind)...but we were definitely bitten pretty good there. Even so...I had to give this product 4 stars because I instantly fell in love with it. I could not give it 5 because it did not work in every situation. I am considering trying this in Yosemite, but I'm afraid the scent might attract bears. That is my only concern about this product because it smells like fresh fruit. But try it! Definitely worth a try!!! | |

This stuff rocks! | |

| When my outdoor-averse husband decided to take up hiking this summer, I was stunned and underprepared. I didn't have hiking gear anymore and had to buy everything new (go REI Outlet!). I hadn't used bug repellent in ages but remembered hating it. Sticky, smelly, ineffective. I checked all of the outdoor recreation stores and websites and it seemed like there was a good consensus that this one worked without the DEET. I was sold. Glad I was, too! After our first outing in the Pikes Peak area, my husband (who elected not to wear it), was eaten alive by bugs. I didn't have a single bite. The bottle now lives in his car. I can't say how well it works in seriously infested wetlands, but in the Colorado mountains, it's plenty good. Smells nice, too, and is minimally sticky. | |

good for casual use | |
| Rating: | |
| People tell me I smell like a citronella candle when I use this stuff, but that's not a bad thing. It's pretty easy to apply. You do have to rub it in after you spray to cover more area. I've found it to be effective against mosquitos on day hikes and in the backyard. I wouldn't trust it in the back country for ticks, chiggers, swarms of mosquitos, etc. I just love this stuff for everyday use because I don't feel like a walking toxic cloud of DEET. | |

The first line of defense | |
| Rating: | |
| This works satisfactorily, which is better than most other natural bug repellents I have tried. I always try to use a natural repellent if possible, like for everyday hiking, camping, and gardening. I haven't used this product in any extremely buggy situations, but if I were traveling to one I would bring DEET as a backup. One thing I like is that it's a spray lotion. Spraying means quick application, and lotion means it's easy to apply to faces and there's no cloud of bad-tasting mist. | |

Good but not for WI woods in June | |
| Rating: | |
| I used this product last summer for camping and hiking in Wisconsin. It has a pleasant fragrance and worked great for several hours in normal circumstances. It could not, however, repel the ungodly swarm of mosquitoes we encountered during an early-season camping trip in a heavily wooded lake area in central WI. But to be fair, the conventional repellents containing DEET did not do much better in that situation. | |

Does not work and can cause sunburn! | |
| Rating: |  |
| This product does not work. I took it with me to Yosemite on a 4 day backpacking trip. I came home with 240 bites (exact count). What's worse, is the oils practically cooked my skin when I was in the sun, resulting in sunburn wherever the repellent was applied. I borrowed some DEET towards the end of the trip and the mosquitoes left me alone. | |

Effecitve only in some situations | |
| Rating: |  |
| This product works great when there are just a few mosquitoes here and there, however, it is not enough when backpacking, camping, or fishing where there are tons of mosquitoes. It may be fine to use hiking while on the move under the cover of trees (it can increase sun burning in open sunlight) but once you're sitting still at a camp site at dawn or dusk, it won't be effective, not even close. Personally, I'll be carrying this product as my first line of defense and only switch to a DEET product when the mosquitoes get thick. Just make sure you read up on DEET--how to use it, toxicology, effects as a solvent, and environmental impacts--prior to using it. In short: do not rely on this product for situations in which there are a lot of mosquitoes. If there are few to moderate amounts of mosquitoes in the area--it's a great DEET free product. | |

Doesn't work in Costa Rica | |
| Rating: | |
| The product smells great for being a bug reppellent...but it didn't work for my husband and I in Costa Rica. Actually, I think we got bitten even more after we used it in the rainforest. Im gonna try it around here (California) on my hiking trip. | |
