In recent years, insect repellents that contain deet have become controversial. This is due to the fact that substantial amounts of deet can damage clothing and equipment—not to mention the effects of prolonged skin contact. Moreover, there are a number of repellents on the market today which offer users equal or better protection from mosquitoes and other biting insects without the side effects. Of these deet-free repellents, our own formula for Deet Free Insect Repellent contains ingredients derived from citronella and lemongrass — two oils that are well-known for their insect-repelling properties. In addition to this, our formula features Vitamin B1 (a natural odor neutralizer), garlic extract (an ingredient which helps protect you from mosquitos feeding on your blood), tea tree oil (another ingredient with insect-repelling properties) and soybean oil (which helps strengthen the skin). If you are going outside, especially in warmer climates, where mosquitoes, ticks and other insects can be a problem, you need Deet Free Insect Repellent. It is the most natural way to keep insects from biting you. This is the perfect product for people who cannot use the common insect repellent DEET (for example, for those with severe allergies or who have small children).

Deet Free Insect Repellent

Introduction

Sometimes it’s nice to get out into nature and enjoy the sun. After all, getting out and enjoying the fresh air is good for you. Whether you’re going hiking or camping, it is a good idea to protect yourself from insects that can bite or sting you. One of the best ways to do this is with insect repellent. You might think that insect repellent has only one ingredient in it, but that isn’t always true. If you buy insect repellent from stores then they commonly contain a chemical called DEET. This chemical was initially developed by the US Army during World War II as a pesticide against malaria-carrying mosquitos who were infecting soldiers stationed in jungles around Asia and Africa at tropical bases such as Okinawa Island (now known as Japan).
