Shabby Chick's Insect Repellent: Finally, a natural insect repellent that WORKS! Our secret weapon is catnip essential oil. Catnip has been proven to be 10x more effective than DEET! No lie! We also use lemon eucalyptus, and 4 other oils to keep all the bugs at bay. Our repellent will repel all sorts of critters-mosquitoes, gnats, chiggers, ticks, and alligators. Ok, maybe not alligators, but if you spray an alligator with it, it won't get any ticks.

Listen when you apply this-think sunscreen/lotion, not aerosol/deet. You need to apply it generously everywhere and rub it in. Any skin exposed it open to the wild (like sunscreen-any skin not covered will burn); for example, I ALWAYS forget my hands. Always. And I am always reminded by a pesky mosquito landing on my hand. It's fine to spray your clothes and hair (and not rub it in), but you need to rub it in on your skin-so spray a LOT!

Ingredients in clue essential oils of catnip, lavender, lemon eucalyptus, palmarosa, cedar wood, and tea tree; water, our hand crafted soap as a binder; and glycerin as a binder/moisturizer!
