para’Kito 8-Hour DEET-Free Mosquito & Tick Spray - No Alcohol, Water/Sweat Resistant, Natural Citronella (2.2oz)

I like this spray. May not be for everyone because it’s not like Off, and you may feel greasy. It’s similar to Avon skin so soft. I used it for my outdoor running and bugs would be stuck on my legs.

It works for people with respiratory issues since the fragrance is very light and plant based ingredients. Repels mosquitoes, deer flies, etc. Very satisfied so bought 2 more bottles to have extras on hand. Great for children, too.

I luv this stuff but it’s hard to find locally so I’m glad it’s on here! It’s very effective without the harsh chemicals or annoying smell

Amazing 🤩 product. Works and smells great.

So this little 2.2 OZ spray bottle comes in a sealed tampered-proof plastic bag as shown in the attached pictures. The main active ingredient is Citronella Oil - 2.55%, Cornmint Oil - 2.00%, Eugenol - 0.3%, and Geraniol 0.25% with about 94.9% insert ingredients such as Lauric acid, Almond Oil and Vitamin E amongst others. This product is listed as Minimum Risk Pesticide so that is good to know as well as Deet-Free and paraben-free. Obviously, with all these ingredients, the texture of this repellent is a little thicker than water, clear but somewhat oily. It does give a little shine on the skin right after applied but then will dry off leaving no residue at all. It's hard to describe the Citronella scent oil but I think it smells really like those bar soaps from a high-end hotel room, very pleasant and refreshing that is not too overwhelming :). The spray pump action is decent and easy to use but not too misty, still does a good job of spraying though. The scent is definitely long-lasting on my upper arms but not so much on my hands since I washed them more often. After a few hand washes, I have to put up my hands really close to my nose to notice any lingering citronella scent. Similar to sweat I guess, the more you sweat and wipe it off, the less effective the repellent is I supposed. But still does a good job repelling mosquitoes under normal condition though. Not quite sure about ticks, and I don't think I want to find out :). I am pretty sure they will stay away from this fresh scent since they are more attracted to odors. It does sting a little, very little if you have cuts or open skin by the way. Overall, this is a nice and very gently smell repellent that works well to repel mosquitoes and other pesky bugs. Just wish the bottle is a little bigger to go with the price :).

It help keeping the tick away.

Natural insect repellent and it smells great. But it is on the pricier side and it leaks. Will finish it but not going to purchase again.

I hardly write reviews but this product works better than everything else including the ones with lots of deet. At least for me, and mosquitos LOVE me. This stuff is magic!!
