There are many bug sprays to choose from that repel different insects. Look at your situation, and choose the best bug spray for you and your family. Consider the following factors:
A: Many bug sprays for the skin contain DEET, the most widely used active ingredient against bug bites since it is safe, effective, and relatively long-lasting. It effectively repels mosquitoes, ticks, gnats, flies, chiggers, and fleas. Although highly effective, it can damage some plastics and fabrics. Picaridin is another effective ingredient against many insects, including mosquitoes, ticks, and flies. Although less popular than DEET, it is comparable and has minimal odor, and will not damage plastic or other synthetic materials. Permethrin is a synthesized plant ingredient that repels mosquitoes and ticks. Unlike traditional bug sprays that go directly on your skin, you spray Permethrin onto your clothing or gear to repel many insects and ticks during outdoor activities. There are also natural plants and essential oils that can offer some protection from insect bites, mainly mosquitoes. Oils like soybean, lemongrass, citronella, cedarwood, peppermint, lavender, geranium, and rosemary can deter mosquitoes from biting you. Still, you must apply them more often than DEET or picaridin-based repellents to maintain protection.
