Murphy's Naturals Mosquito & Tick Bug Repellent Spray, Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus for Skin + Outdoor Gear, DEET-Free, 2 Ounce Pump, 3-Pack

If I could give this 10 stars I would. I have been spraying cutter on my clothing, hat & boots every day I’m outside on our farm and still would get no less then 4 or 5 tick bites per day.I put this Murphys on this morning, sprayed it in my hair & clothing and not 1 tick all day!!!!I need to buy stock in this company!!!

Ok, I basically never leave reviews, because I just don't have the time. But knowing how much I rely on others' reviews to help me find things that work, I feel it my duty to share.I bought this a month ago for my 3- and 4-year-old kids, especially. We live in DC (which is a swampy, humid, mosquito-breeding steamroom in the summer), and the mosquitoes are just awful and relentless. My kids love to play outside, both at their daycare and at home, but they've just been getting eaten alive, and my daughter gets really bad reaction and swelling when she gets bitten. It's been so bad that, prior to using Murphy's Repellant, they'd only stay in the yard a couple minutes before coming inside, covered in painful mosquito bites. I'd been using a different repellant (Sallye Ander No-Bite-Me Bug Repellent Cream - 2 oz, Natural, Safe for Kids & Infants, Anti-Itch, Moisturizing, Lemongrass & Mint Scent), which smelled pretty good but was sadly not very effective. Back to the drawing board, I did more research and found Murphy's. The reviews seemed promising, but honestly, I've tried so many non-DEET repellants over the years and none of them have worked very well and are always a disappointment. So I didn't have high hopes for this one.Well, my kids' skin doesn't lie! This stuff has worked shockingly well! We apply it in the morning around 8 am before heading to their daycare (they spend a lot of time outdoors there at the on-site playgrounds). It is effective up through pick up, which is around 4:30/5pm. Then if they want to play outside when we get home, we do have to reapply one time, but that will last them the rest of the evening. It's like...night and day. When my daughter has it on, she plays happily outside. When she doesn't, if she plays outside anyway, she comes in crying in 5 minutes from 5-10 painful mosquito bites. My son doesn't get so upset by bites, but I can see them on his skin when he gets them, and since we started using this, he very rarely has bites on him.Here's a quick pro/con list.PRO:-WORKS (at least for us)-Effective even in humid, mosquito-swarming environments-Easy to apply, and after several minutes, it soaks in completely and leaves no greasy or unpleasant residueCONS:-the smell is rather strong when applying and for about 10 minutes after application (but it does dissipate)-it's a bit pricey (but worth it, since it works!)I hope this review is helpful to other folks looking for EFFECTIVE, non-DEET, non-greasy mosquito repellant!

Smells good but not working so much you need keep putting. But the only thing is if you have pet this is a good one

After heavy rains, we have a lot of mosquitos. I chose this repellant since it's supposed to be "better" ingredients than the traditional spray. This applies easily in a nice mist, plenty of coverage, has a light scent that is NOT overpowering, and works to repel the mosquitoes. I am pleased with this product. I even use this on my 2 year old.

I had ticks on me already this year but when I used this i didn't get any.

I am an allergy person with lots of allergies and have to take care more than normal what i use - at that point i did not took care enough for myself. i used it cause i had 2 mosquitos in my bedroom and could not get rid of them for over 8 days so i was thinking okay i take this oils and make it on my skin and thats it.The Scent is (for me and my dogs) really heavy, my dogs went out of my bedroom cause of that scent and that mean a lot to me and after i had it on my skin it began to itching and burning without ending, so i had to wash it away quickly - my face was red like a tomato after that and it hurted a lot. So i took the bottle and wanted to know whats in side - 30% oils and 70% unknown - so that unknown declaration is chemical i guess - and the scent in my bedroom was so heavy that i sleept on my couch in the livingroom and had to open all the windows over night what is in florida not usual like you can imagine.so i am not with that product and i took it away, can not send it back. No money back garanty if you are allergic against it. Thats Life....Be careful about your health and the health of your family - i am not recommend this product - sorry!

I took this bug spray to costa rica and it worked perfectly! Some of the flies looked like miniature crabs and this spray worked to keep them away!

I live in Georgia and the mosquitos are the size of bumblebees! This repellent works great for mosquitoes. Very strong smell of lemon and eucalyptus which may repel more than just insects but I am happy with the results
