Don't Bug Me
Choose a less toxic way to ward off mosquitoes. Even though it's back to school time, hikes, garden visits, and outdoor fun aren't over yet. I've constantly sought out safe remedies for warding off vicious mosquitoes that love to nibble at ankles. I've chosen to go DEET-free to reduce using things I can't pronounce. We use citronella oil and it seems like the bugs have backed off. No matter what your choice in bug spray, there are more natural and easy ways to keep chemicals out of our homes and keep bugs away. You can wear light colored clothes, as mosquitoes are attracted to dark colors and warmth.

Bert's Bees makes a good product as well. DEET-free, of course!
