## Description

Does your family love the great outdoors — but hate mosquitos, gnats, and other biting critters? Bug Soother MAX is for those who adventure in wooded areas or marshy land where biting bugs, like mosquitos, are more aggressive and resilient to traditional insect repellents. This simple yet effective herbaceous formula is super-charged with a blend of woody and floral essential oils like cedarwood, peppermint, geranium, and lemongrass that ward off pesky mosquitoes. Bug Soother Max has a woody floral scent. Smells great — but bugs hate it! *Bug Soother MAX repels mosquitoes for up to 6 hours and ticks for up to 2 hours* Made in Cedar Rapids, Iowa with 100% renewable energy Bug repellent to be safe for adults, when used as directed. First Aid: In case of eye contact, flush with plenty of water. If eye or skin irritation persists, discontinue use and consult your physician. Storage and Disposal: Store in a cool, dry area away from children and pets.

Review: Really works, highly recommended - I am a biting bug magnet and have tried any number of repellents. This is the one that really works. Since I started using it I have had maybe 1 or 2 in a week instead of multiple every day. This has a pleasant scent, does not sting, and contains nothing harmful. Saved my sanity and my budget - I was scratching constantly and buying every anti-itch cream on the market but have not needed them since I started using this product. The only complaint I have is that the spray bottle nozzle frequently sticks so I bought my own spray bottle and transfer the liquid. Don't want to be without this. I have reordered multiple times.
Review: Works well - this really works for my wife. For me it's a bit of a strong odor, but as long as it keeps the mosquitoes away from my wife, it works.
