Common bug repellents include sprays, candles, smokers, and electronic zappers.  Those with chemical sensitivities are finding more natural and alternative products now coming to market.

I read the instructions numerous times thinking I'm doing something wrong because the whole family just kept getting bitten over and over. It was crazy. I tend to get bites a bit more for some reason but this was like having nothing on at all. I should have just thrown my money...

I was really rooting for this product to solve all my bug bitten needs but sadly it fell short. The scent isn’t overwhelming but the bugs seem to enjoy it instead of being repelled.
Raid Outdoor Ant Nest Destroyer

15 reviews

I had some ants coming into my house through the front porch and although this product is for ant hills I thought that the little attachment would fit into the hole that the ants were going into. It only took one spray and by the next day I didn’t see any more ants inside so I...

My poor cat ended up with fleas this winter and she is an indoor cat. I did let her out a few times on her leash during the mild days we had this past winter. My vet wasn't surprised as a lot of pet owners were seeing her for the same thing. I was given advantage and the fleas...

For me, these worked well to reduce the number of bites that I could have gotten in the summer and in high mosquito areas in the tropics for nearly a 24 hour period. (Smaller than average sized person) It was simple to apply and did not require any maintenance once it was on...

The Stinger Bug Zapper

This really works. It has to be hung up a distance away from where you are - we usually hang it on the other side of the yard when we have a fire. It works really well - it has a UV light that attracts bugs. You can hear them get zapped, so you know it is working! The only...
