I am excited to share this list with you because I am a magnet for bug bites in the summer. If I want to go spend 5 minutes in the side flower bed weeding (which I need to do today), I need to cover myself in bug spray unless I want about 20 bug bites before I come back inside. Bugs love me … I really hate them. I am hoping this top ten product list helps you stay bug bite free this summer. I will add that we used the incense sticks for the first times this summer and they really work! Be careful with them around kids but they are great!

Repel Permethrin Clothing & Gear Insect Repellent
Insect-Free Hiking
A little planning can go a long way toward staying mosquito-bite-free in the backwoods and on the water. Simply apply Rebel Permethrin Clothing & Gear Insect Repellent aerosol on all your equipment before you’re planning to be outdoors, and you’ll enjoy mosquito and tick protection that repels and kills biting insects for up to two weeks.
The odorless spray actually binds to the fabric on garments, boots, backpacks, tents, nets, and other outdoor gear, ensuring residual protection that lasts through several machine washings and multiple outdoor excursions.
Safe and Effective
Permethrin, the active ingredient in Repel Permethrin Clothing & Gear Insect Repellent aerosol, is a synthetic pyrethroid that works by disrupting the normal functioning of the nervous system of mosquitoes and ticks. It’s a contact insecticide that kills all biting insects that come in contact with treated fabric fibers.
Permethrin-based repellents are safe for use with any type of fabric or material–even delicate garments. The insecticide binds very strongly to the fibers of the fabrics you treat, but will not absorb into the skin. The aerosol is designed for clothing application, however. Do not spray products containing permethrin directly onto your skin.
