NATURE'S BEST BUZZER BEATER!

  • My son is currently serving a mission in the South Pacific in Vanuatu and basically lives on a tropical jungle island! He uses my "Bug Ya Later" Stick EVERY DAY and not only swears by it, but says it works better than anything else he's tried! He also loves my Tea Tree Balm for all the fungal infections on his skin and my Skin & Wound Salve helps with all the scratches, cuts, and other skin issues he gets from living in the jungle! (read this fun fb post)!

This awesome combo of herbs and essential oils makes an excellent, deet-free alternative to commercial bug sprays! By creating a fresh, citrusy fragrance with natural ingredients that buzzers hate, they'll keep on flyin' by! Feels great to fend them off with something made by Mother Nature instead of a lab! 

  • 1 oz TWIST TUBE (1" wide x 3" tall): Net Wt 1 oz 
  • 2 oz TWIST TUBE (1.5" wide x 5" tall): Net Wt 2.3 oz 
  • HALF OZ tin (1.5" wide x .75" tall): Net Wt .5 oz 

HOW TO USE IT: Simply twist and apply light layer to exposed skin! Because it contains Lemon Eucalyptus, it is not recommended for children under age 3. As with any skin care product - there is always potential for allergies. Review the ingredient list & test a small amount on your skin prior to normal use. If irritation occurs, discontinue use. 

INGREDIENTS: Sweet Almond & Neem Oils (Infused with Lemon Balm, Peppermint & Rosemary), Beeswax, Essential Oil Blend of Citronella, Lemon Eucalyptus, Lavender & Vanilla

NOTE: No bug repellant (commercial or natural) is going to work 100% of the time - but if I can use a more natural product and get by with a bite or two instead of dozens... sign me up!! In dozens of personal tests by myself, friends, and family - we found that in thicker bug conditions, our bare skin with no bug stick applied, would be covered with 20+ mosquitos immediately! But... we noticed that our skin WITH "Bug Ya Later" applied only had one or two BRAVE buzzers land! 

DISCLAIMER: This is not a repellent. It has not been tested/approved by the EPA, and therefore cannot be labeled as a repellant. So... I'm callin' it a buzzer beater! 

MY FORMULA: INGREDIENTS & WHY I PICKED THEM

Pesky insects and mosquitos DETEST the strong scents that naturally occur in Lemon Balm, Peppermint, and Rosemary - so by infusing them into the oils, it creates the base of my awesome anti-buzzer formula! I added Citronella & Vanilla Essential Oils because they repel bugs by masking our natural body scents that attract them, plus it interferes with their sensory receptors and irritates them! (Ha!! Take that, bug)! Next, I added Lemon Eucalyptus oil because it contains a naturally occurring chemical called p-menthane-3,8-diol (or PMD) which is a well-known, well-studied, and very recognized natural repellant that is used in MANY natural AND synthetic repellents. Lavender is added for two reasons, it compliments and balances the citrus fragrances, but mainly because LOTS of bugs HATE lavender because it contains linalool and linalyl acetate. {wink! wink!} From herbs to essential oils - I'm super happy with how this formula performs!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

  • WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE? The shelf life of this stick is 1 year. Since it's the fragrance that the insects hate... as the scent of the stick fades, so will it's effectiveness - so be sure the lid is secured when not in use.
  • HOW OFTEN SHOULD IT BE APPLIED? This varies... depends on how thick the bugs are and if you are sweating alot or getting wet. In general, for myself, I've found it's generally effective for around 4 hours.

A-MA-ZING!!

I was a little skeptical at first… An all natural bug repellant that actually works?!?! So glad I tried it! A little applied on the exposed skin and ankles and no more mosquitos. Doesn’t leave your skin feeling sticky/dry like other repellants. It’s been a game changer with outdoor work and fun this summer! Thanks Colette!!

Great for kids and adults who can’t stand the spray texture of bug spray! Just a swipe and no more bug bites

Perfection!

Here’s another review for you!
I have always had problems with mosquitoes. Three and a half years ago we moved from Las Vegas to Central Texas. I have literally been swarmed by mosquitoes every time I go outside. The bites swell up huge and itch for days. I was so excited to sit out on our beautiful patio when we got here and enjoy some fresh air. But nope. Hasn’t happened in three and a half years. I can’t even open the door for a second without some sneaking in. It’s a nightmare. Until today. I rubbed my Bug Ya Later stick on my face, ears, arms and feet and got brave enough to take my fiddle out on the patio and play some music! I was so surprised to see a mosquito coming right towards my face, and then back right off and leave! I was out there for an hour without even one bite! This stuff is absolutely amazing! Beyond my wildest dreams! Thank you so very, very much! I am now the happiest gal in Texas!

Smells AMAZING!!

I love the smell. 👃 It makes putting it on even better, especially when you are camping! Plus I used it in the mountains and it worked great! It isn’t a spray, so you have to glide it on, then rub it in, but it’s an easy process. I would definitely recommend!!

Smells great and works!

We went camping for a week and the mosquitoes were thick! I did not end up with any bites where I applied this. I did get a few through my clothing, but nothing like I normally would. It smells great and is fairly easy to apply almost like a deodorant stick
