Description
Bug Spray for humans
Good for the backyard, beach, woods and garden.
A gentle, effective, plant‑based bug spray crafted for everyday use. Offers a light, refreshing scent you can wear like a body spray while helping discourage common outdoor pests. Blended specifically for daily, skin‑friendly use each time you step outside.
Additionally, each ingredient is included for its traditional use, aromatic strength, and long‑respected role in keeping mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers, and biting flies at bay. A witch‑hazel and grapeseed oil base allows the blend to sit lightly on the skin, and the natural oils are carried in a way that feels clean, cool, and easy to wear through the day.
Aromatic Oils Traditionally Used to Discourage Pests
Peppermint
Peppermint has long been valued for its sharp, cooling aroma. Its strong scent is known to be disliked by mosquitoes and biting flies, making it a common choice in natural outdoor blends.
Lavender
Lavender’s floral notes have been used for centuries to help keep moths, mosquitoes, and small insects away from clothing and skin. Its gentle scent adds balance to stronger oils.
Lemon
Lemon’s bright citrus aroma has been valued for helping discourage mosquitoes and gnats. The crisp scent lifts the entire blend and adds a clean, fresh top note.
Eucalyptus
Eucalyptus has been widely used in outdoor sprays because its bold, camphor‑like aroma is known to be unappealing to mosquitoes and ticks. It adds strength and staying power to the formula.
Tea Tree
Tea tree oil has a long history of use in outdoor environments. Its earthy, resinous scent is traditionally used to help keep biting insects at a distance.
Vanilla
Vanilla has been used in folk blends to soften strong aromas while helping extend the scent’s longevity. Its warm sweetness helps the spray cling lightly to the skin.
Grapeseed Oil
Grapeseed oil offers a naturally light texture and has long been used in plant‑based blends meant to help discourage mosquitoes. It helps the spray settle softly on the skin without heaviness and makes it easy to rub in so you can cover all areas — especially around ankles where ticks tend to gather.
