Is it safe with deets

Truly safe, works well. We take it to the beach everyday, have been using it for years.

We have not had any problems with this product. Deet is very important to good protection; we've used it for years.

I cannot intelligently answer your question. DEET is not a healthy chemical except, it does keep the bugs that can cause illness away. So in that sense, it is a choice.

I'm. Sorry I bought this product so long ago. I know it didn't work for my problem. If they are insects I would buy the diatomaceous earth food grade. It cuts them in half if they walk through it. An it is safe if u breath it. But I wouldn't. I bought baby powder an took out the powder then put the dial.earth in the container. Then spread the. D. E. Where you need to. A little gos a long way. I had to move from where I was living to get rid of whatever it was. Compleat nightmare. Charlotte

Another safe alternative to chemicals thats definitely safe for kids and pets is pine o pine. If you have a yard sprayer that hooks directly to the garden hose, mix 50/50 pine o pine and distilled vinegar and spray your yard, it will make all flying and crawling insects leave or die including fleas... Remember pine o pine not pinesol. I've located it at my local kroger grocery store it's like $1.62 nice and cheap. Ooh yeah and your yard will smell great, won't hurt grass either.

I don't think its strong enough. I feel safer with a deet product like Deep Woods Off.

I used Pine Sol and shutting off the central heat to kill bed bugs in an apartment that had moved over from next door. I wanted to use d-limonene but is was too expensive. It would work however selling products designed to kill living creatures is serious business and strictly regulated. Use at your own risk knowing that this is safer for your family then most pesticides that are sold and regulated. And for cleaning it's certainly safer than laundry bleach however one should were protective goggles when using any of cleaning product. Well, you can skip them for the baby shampoo.

It depends on your chemistry. Personally, I was disappointed in the product. I'm in Florida and it did not protect against no-see-ums completely. However, bugs are drawn to me more than anyone I'm with at any given time, and it did work for the others. Seems Deep Woods Off or Bullfrog are the things that work for my skin, although one contains DEET and the other is a spray.

yes. I would do a internet search of the product just to make sure u are using it safely though.

I've had good results using this spray extensively in both Central America and the Tropical South Pacific. I did, however, get occasional bites, but I did *not* contract malaria. It's all a numbers game: It's about reducing, not eliminating, risk. You have to weigh for yourself the risks / benefits of DEET vs nonchemical repellents. I *can* with certainty, however, say this spray is no substitute for DEET when it comes to causing skin irritation or solvating plastics ;~P

Yes, it' safe. Not sure how effective it is though! It is no longer effective on my animals :(

If you are just using the product in the evening than you are fine and you are using another form of insect repellent for the day than you should be okay, but if the Mosquitos are bad all day than would purchase an extra pack. Relaxing during the day and Dinner/Evening Shows if are on a resort walking around. Be prepared so can enjoy!!!!!

ABSOLUTELY! I live in south florida, so mosquitos are a big problem. And boy do they love me. I've tried everything. Some of the 80- 100% Deet sprays work well, but they are literally poison. This spray oil works equally well without making your lips numb and you nail polish peel off. I would highly recommend it. Hope this was helpful to you. Best, Kaeli

Absolutely. We went to South Africa and not one mosquito bite. Great stuff and not greasy. Better than spray

After reading about the toxicity of the ingredients, I never used it. I went for DEET instead, although not so great for us as well. There are natural insect repellants.

Since you only use a small amount it should be ok. Maybe test a small area first to see if you react. Make sure not to get it in your eyes though.

Yes, but only a little. When you buy something, you expect it to perform. Deet does this remarkably well. Better than anything I've ever tried. Many promise, only Deet delivers. I haven't found that it damages clothes, is uncomfortable, or anything that is undesirable. I like the aroma: it gives you confidence that you will not be bothered by any pest for as long as you work or play outside. A light spray and I'm good for a whole day of yard work without worry. Best stuff I ever found. If you think it's too oily, rub it in when you spray on skin. Otherwise just spray on clothing.

I don't see why not. It doesn't contain any DEET. I think it smells pretty good too. I've used it here in Maine and it worked really well.
