Muskol pump spray

When I go out to the nature/outdoors, I always am one of the first to be bitten. It'll be okay if it didn't swell up as soon as I get bitten but I do. So I always need protection, I even got 50% DEET spray once (not available in Canada because the deet percentage is not legal in...

After Bite

I was chewed up by mosquitoes and hoped for some relief but that never came. I liked the old After Bite, the one with a very strong smell but effective. The new one does nothing and the itching drives me crazy no matter how much cream I apply.

Mosquitos and Ticks are pretty bad in our area. I've tried lots of natural or "other" forms of bug repellent. But I have found that nothing works as well as deet. This spray is nice because it's not sticky and goes on pretty dry. My kids don't complain about the smell either...
