natural insect repellent

I just stumbled across this site about natural insect repellents.  Now that’s a good thing.  Camping is fun but I think we are all on the same page about bugs and mosquitoes -  that’s not the fun part.

I use a natural spray that is harmless to children and pets that is based on a chrysanthemum extract and I tell you – it works.  It’s called ‘Don’t Bug Me’ by Foxfarm.

 Using it at home right on the threshhold or other favorite entry points for ants and they just don’t cross that line.  I think the active ingredient is Pyrethrin which is found in some, not all chrysanthemums.

Works great camping too.  Especially if your tent just has tub liners for the sleeping areas but the inner one has to be held in place with ties – no more bugs creeping in along the join…and no more coming in thru the entrance way.

If you don’t want to be bugged, then add a natural insect repellent to your ‘must have’ camping list!
