The CDC confirmed that lemon eucalyptus oil can be as effective as DEET in repelling mosquitoes. In two recent scientific publications, when oil of lemon eucalyptus was tested against mosquitoes found in the US it provided protection similar to repellents with low concentrations of DEET.

Here is a customer product review posted on facebook:
"Just wanted to let you know that we are loving your natural bug spray.
We use on our dog and haven't found a tick on her since we started
using it. The spray also keeps her coat super clean. She is a white
shepherd and your spray keeps her white coat bright...an added plus!
Thank you! " SM- Brigantine
