Pattern Name:Case Pack of 1|Size Name:4-Ounce
Most of us grew up with DEET and didn't think a whole lot of it. Well, those days are over. DEET is still widely used because it is so darn effective. If you need to keep mosquitoes away you know you can count on DEET. By contrast you've probably been told you could try a particular beauty lotion and found that even if works a little bit, you still get thoroughly worked over and have to deal with the bugs a lot.

It turns out however that nature has some tricks of her own. Now, insect "systems" ... nervous system? neurological? is there a difference? I don't know and it doesn't matter for these purposes ... insect systems are totally disrupted by a couple of very common compounds produced by plants. This is NOT by chance. Plants produce these compounds to protect themselves from being eaten up by insects (turns out they don't like bugs so much either!). These plants include some of the mints, geranium, and this lemon eucalyptus.

Lemon eucalyptus is actually what they make citronella out of. I myself have never had good luck with citronella. The lemon eucalyptus oil works better. But does this stuff work as well as DEET? Absolutely not. If you are going to spend a week in a swamp then you will *not* find adequate relief from this (nor, likely, from the DEET for that matter). However if you're going to grill out back with your kids and your dog running around and you want to be able to get some protection that doesn't have all the health issues but still actually DOES something then this is not a bad bottle to have around. I wish it had mint oils in it too since I've found them to be even more effective.

If you are a camper (especially a car camper) this is a great spray to have around for when the bugs start to come out but you may not want to rely on it completely if the bugs are real bad.

Related: My neighborhood also has a lot of paper wasps and I've found EcoSMART Wasp & Hornet Killer 14 oz. Aerosol (2 PACK) to be 100% ideal in killing them. It has mint oils and I trust it to knock out wasps before they have a chance to get mad and sting the kids.... and it does so with a pleasant scent to boot.

I've also seen and used repellants based on mint to set up a "perimeter" and protect a whole area for a night that I found to be 100% effective.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pump User Error July 2, 2011
Pattern Name:Case Pack of 1| Size Name:4-Ounce|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this last month after reading the July 2010 Consumer Reports (CR) article on insect repellents. Of the ones CR recommended, this oil of lemon eucalyptus based repellent was the only one on par with DEET products in terms of hours of effectiveness. It's interesting to note that the front of the bottle claims it repels mosquitoes up to 6 hours, but the CR tests indicated it was still going strong after 8 hours - equivalent to greater than 15% DEET.

As for the pump design issues mentioned in other reviews, I've had no problems with mine. As it's only a pump spray bottle, you can't hold it upside down to spray your legs because then the straw isn't in the repellent and nothing comes out. Just make sure the bottle is always upright when you're spraying yourself and you won't have any problems.

To sum up, this is a great alternative to DEET, smells a heck of a lot better (like what we think of as citronella), and I'll continue to use it when I walk my dogs.

3.0 out of 5 stars Effective if you can get the pump to work May 20, 2011
By Wally
Pattern Name:Case Pack of 1|Size Name:4-Ounce
I was walking a dog when I get bitten like heck by mosquitos. I don't like DEET so gave this a try. The good: for me, the repellent does work. I had this on the back of my hands and after a dog walk, no bites whatsoever. The bad: it's very difficult to get the pump to spray the repellent. Feels almost like the manufactures designed the pump as a practical joke. The pump certainly is not user friendly. I think I'll have to use cotton balls to apply the repellent.

I gave 3 stars as this is the average of 5 for great solution, but 1 for poor bottle design.
