Insect Repellent Uses Natural Essential Oils
One of the most annoying aspects of gardening (or any outdoor activity) is being bugged by insect pests. A new, all-natural insect repellent made by Para’Kito keeps pesky mosquitoes and ticks away—even though it contains no harmful chemicals. The active ingredients are natural essential oils that smell good to people, but not to insects. The spray is water and sweat resistant, and it provides effective protection for up to 8 hours against mosquitoes and ticks.
Para’Kito Insect Repellent contains almond oil and Vitamin E to help moisturize and comfort your skin. The spray is safe to use on children, pregnant women, and people with sensitive skin. A handy (and portable) spray bottle sells for $19.50 at us.parakito.com.
