We humans are squishy and juicy, which makes us a prime target for the creatures who feast on blood. That includes mosquitoes, ticks and fleas. When those forsaken pests come near you, wouldn’t it be great if you could just tell them “No bite me”? With Green Light’s No Bite Me Bug Repellant products, you can do just that. Just apply before going outside or to bed, and you’ll be protected from pesky bloodsuckers for up to five hours — without harmful chemicals. The scent comes from essential oils and other natural ingredients like coconut oil and jojoba seed oil. You friends might actually say how much better you smell! No Bite Me™ is a unique mosquito and tick repellent. Millions of people entering the outdoors every year are exposed to potentially dangerous bites and stings. Many of these outdoor activities also involve families with young children, who’s tender skin and bodies may be at a higher risk of infection from these bugs. Developed by an award-winning chemist, No Bite Me is the first CDC-registered, organic insect repellent for personal protection against both mosquitoes and ticks.

No Bite Me Bug Repellent

Introduction

While my No Bite Me Bug Repellent formula doesn’t include many of the above ingredients, I think it is worth a test for most kids. It includes citronella, and neem oil, which are both proven insect repellents and are known to deter mosquitoes specifically.

1/2 cup witch hazel

First, you’ll need to make sure that the witch hazel is organic. “Organic” means that it was produced without pesticides or other chemicals; it’s also not made with genetically modified organisms (GMOs). If you buy a witch hazel product that’s labeled “organic,” the chances are good that the label means what it says.

Next, use caution when buying witch hazel products in stores or online. Some companies add additional chemicals to their products—some of which could be harmful—and there can be inconsistencies between different batches of the same product from different manufacturers. That said, here are some brands to look for: [link]

[link] and [link] both maintain strong reputations for quality manufacturing practices and integrity among customers who have used their products for years.

1/2 cup apple cider vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is a natural bug repellent. If you’re looking for a more natural way to deter bugs without using chemicals, apple cider vinegar is the answer. It’s also a natural antiseptic, disinfectant, deodorizer, fungicide and pesticide.

1 tablespoon teaspoon neem oil

Neem oil is a natural insect repellent that’s safe for humans, but not cats. It can be used to repel many types of insects, including fleas and ticks. Neem oil can also be used on skin to repel mosquitoes and other bugs, but it should not be applied directly to the face or eyes.

1/4 teaspoon olive oil

If you’re looking for a natural mosquito repellent that doesn’t involve harmful chemicals or DEET, consider using olive oil. Olive oil has been proven to repel mosquitoes and other insects just as effectively as chemical-based repellents.

It’s easy to make your own natural bug spray by mixing 1/4 teaspoon of olive oil with 1 cup of water in a spray bottle, but there are also commercial products available online and at most grocery stores that use this same combination of oils for their bug repellent mixture.

15 drops eucalyptus essential oil

Eucalyptus essential oil is a natural insect repellent, anti-inflammatory and antiseptic that smells wonderful! You can use it straight or mix it with other essential oils to create your desired scent or mixture. This makes eucalyptus a great option for those who want an all-natural repellent that won’t irritate their skin like chemical-based bug sprays do.

15 drops lavender essential oil

Lavender essential oil is a natural bug repellent and an anti-inflammatory, among other things. It helps reduce the skin’s response to bites, swelling and itching. In addition to its effectiveness against mosquitoes, lavender essential oil can also repel ticks, fleas and flies.

The benefits of using lavender as a mosquito repellent are also backed by science: A number of studies have shown that it has both insecticidal and repellant properties that work by inhibiting the growth of larvae or killing adults outright (1). Lavender essential oil also has calming properties that help reduce anxiety—an important benefit if you’re heading into high-risk areas like forests or fields where ticks may live in large numbers during warmer months because this can lead to tick paralysis syndrome (2).

5 drops rosemary essential oil

Rosemary essential oil is known for its distinctive aroma and its use in the culinary world. It’s also a popular ingredient in beauty products, cleaning products and more.

Rosemary oil contains antibacterial properties that can kill germs on contact, making it an excellent choice for repelling mosquitoes and other biting insects. Rosemary essential oil blends well with other essential oils like cedarwood, lemon, citronella and lavender to create a powerful all-natural bug repellent that works without any harmful chemicals.

This bug repellent keeps bugs from even biting you.

• Apply No Bite Me to your skin, clothing, and other surfaces.
• Do not spray directly onto a person’s face or mouth.
• For children under 6 months of age: Ask a doctor before use. Do not apply this product to the face of an infant less than 6 months old; to do so will increase his/her risk of serious harm during application (e.g., ingestion). To help avoid accidental ingestion by children, do not apply to furniture that could be chewed by infants who crawl or walk. Use only in well-ventilated areas away from food preparation surfaces and cooking appliances like stoves or microwaves; when using near food preparation equipment always keep it out of reach of children and pets as they can easily get sprayed with it if they come into contact with the treated surface while being used by anyone within range of application area such as adults standing nearby during spraying process etc…)

Conclusion

The neem oil, eucalyptus, and lavender essential oils are what make this bug spray so effective. The combination of these ingredients makes a scent that bugs hate, which means they won’t even bother to bite you. And since it smells so good, you can use it all day long without worrying about the stench of other sprays. Best of all? It’s completely natural!
