  Works great on me and im like a Mosquito magnet
  Jul 11th, 2016

  This thing is really effective. It doesn't smell chemical and lasts for hours. It smells strongly of lemon, but not the lemony scent of furniture polish. I was gone for nearly three hours with no bites. No deet, and I wasn't bothered at all by bugs. Just keep in mind that you would need to reapply if you went in and out of the water. Since mosquitoes adore me, it should be effective on everyone.

  A single application and zero bugs
  May 21st, 2022

  Mosquito populations are strong in East Texas wooded areas with sandy soil. Fleas are also. All flying insects stay away from my arms, neck, and face after a single application. With a few sprays of Repel on the cuffs of my pants, fleas that live in the grass and soil never land on me. The liquid is gentle on the skin, and the lemon aroma is not overpowering. A little actually goes a long way. Very affordable and simple to use. I'll soon add this product to my list of subscriptions. Never in my life do I want to be without it.

  The pungent stench is too much for my wife. I think it's fine and am willing to put up with a little bit of odor for a product that actually works. The mosquitoes are effectively repelled by this substance. Nothing else is as effective. zero harmful chemicals. stronger than all the commercial alternatives, but smells far nicer. I adore having a bottle by each exit from my canal property in Florida. In Mexico City, I also keep a bottle close to my bed because it fully repels mosquitoes. Only I use this product, and I'm the only one in the family who hasn't been bitten by a mosquito.

  This stuff actually works
  Jul 29th, 2020

  Where I reside, we have a MASSIVE mosquito infestation that makes it impossible to sit outside at any time of day or night. Since I prefer using natural remedies over harsh chemicals, I thought I'd give this one a shot. It really does work! It is without a doubt the greatest insect repellent I have ever used, and I keep it outside for myself and visitors. Strong smell, but very worthwhile. The presence of the incense sticks makes the mosquitoes a little less inclined to visit my outdoor deck.

  Stuff works great
  Apr 5th, 2022

  When I went on my hikes, I would eat in the forest. I purchased this gear and hiked with it. After about ten minutes of my bug-filled hike, I sprayed the cream on my hands and skin and rubbed it in. It immediately encircled me with an imperceptible shield. However, they never went much closer than a few inches. Mosquitoes flew in for a taste. For the remainder of the hike, they avoided touching me. The effectiveness of this Repel medication astounded me. Has a pleasant scent and doesn't include any ingredients that I know are harmful to my health. Excellent item that I always take on walks.

  Love this stuff for mosquitoes and gnats
  May 21st, 2022

  This is the only other spray I've found that effectively repels black flies, gnats, and mosquitoes (the other came from a lavender farm in Delaware that is now closed). If you detest citronella, this is not the product for you. When I was in Maine during the black fly season, I sprayed my hat to keep the bugs away, and it was the ideal addition to my head net.

  It actually works
  Jul 11th, 2022

  No matter where I go, mosquitoes manage to find me for some annoying reason. EVERYWHERE: in the garage, at the gym, when on a neighborhood stroll. Like I cannot resist pizza, neither can they. I've been using this repellant for years, and during that time I have never once been bitten. It has a bad scent, but it's not as strong as Deet, which I like because Deet is too strong for me. Thanks a lot!

  The only bug spray I use and it works
  Jun 26th, 2021

  Even though I used a ton of deet insect spray, I used to get dozens of mosquito bites on my legs every summer until I started using this. That ceased once I started using this. I only get bitten at little locations where the spray doesn't quite reach. The rest of the time, this works well. I can only comment on the mosquitoes in and around Boston and suburban Philadelphia. But I'd advise against it. Strong smell, but as long as it works, I'll accept it.

  Great once you get past the scent
  Jun 7th, 2022

  Since I attract mosquitoes, I needed a solution that genuinely worked. Despite the negative evaluations, I reasoned that it was still worth a shot given the cost. The smell is overpowering, and after spraying my legs, I quickly went inside and started coughing. Once you apply it, make a point of staying outside for a bit. Even though I have sensitive skin, I have not yet experienced an allergic reaction to this lotion. It seems to be working because I haven't yet been bitten.

  Works okay, but still harsh
  Jul 15th, 2022

  I don't feel comfortable using this on my children because it has a strong smell and, when you peel back the label to see the FULL details, you can see that it still advises the user to wash their skin after returning inside. I won't purchase it again, but it's fine.
