Does Natural Mosquito Repellent Work? #natural-bugspray

Consumer Reports recently tested natural mosquito & tick repellents and found only one type of natural bug repellent was effective.  The test found mosquito & tick repellents containing lemon eucalyptus oil (OLE) is effective at repelling mosquitos.  

At Cape Cod All Natural we agree with Consumer Reports recent finding.  Our all natural repellents use several types of natural plant oil of lemon eucalyptus as its active ingredient. We use a special proprietary form of organic eucalyptus in a pure oil without any fillers --so require less than the 30% level tested in the study. The length of time that it is effective depends on several factors some of which are; humidity, heat, the carrier oils and the base. Pure essential oils are too strong and must be mixed with a base. We use Aloe in our sunscreen repellent products which is good for your skin and extends the time of effectiveness.  All repellents are most effective the first hour or so, so it’s best to re-apply. ​

Cape Cod All Naturals mosquito & tick bug repellent products are now available Online and at select  Cape and Easter MA retailers.
