This product smells amazing and fresh. I did not get bitten at all when using this and I’m around horses and in stables in the summer so this has really helped me. I now no longer go home covered in red bites. Great ingredients and this smell is fantastic

Excelente producto, el mejor repelente con larga duración.

Like I suspect many, I had only vaguely heard of eucalyptus or oil of eucalyptus. After reading something about it and its many uses, and googling it, I wanted to buy some. I am not disappointed. It has an extraordinary and unusual aroma to it. It is apparently used in aromatherapy, and when squirted in the shower is proven to lower stress levels! How can something that smells so nice to us be so completely repellant to all insects, both flying and earthbound?This stuff is magic, and apparently eucalyptus only grows in Australia! I bought two bottles, one for the bathroom and the other for the living room. The first one is used when I shower, and the second to squirt on my nets to stop tiny flying insects - we have been inundated in recent summers. I might also squirt favoured guests. Completely intrigued with my new purchase.

For those of you who would prefer a plant based extract rather than an industrially produced chemical repellent, this just might be the product for you. I had an infestation of no-see-ums (biting midges) in my home that were literally eating me alive; inflicting multiple itching bites all over my body that caused nasty welts that lasted for weeks. Repel goes on wet, thus allowing you to spread it around a bit before it dries—usually 5-10 seconds after it is sprayed on. I found it to be very effective in keeping away the little invisible flying vampires, as I did not receive a single bite on any of the exposed areas of skin to which this oil had been applied (I sprayed it on twice a day for several weeks before the problem abated) The oil dries completely and is non-greasy and invisible. It didn’t stain my clothing and kept the bugs at bay for at least 6 hours. However, unlike many chemical repellents on the market that are unscented, eucalyptus oil has an extremely powerful aroma that some may find objectionable—I do not mind it so this was not a factor in my purchasing decision. If I have one criticism, it would be that I would expect Repel to be available in larger sizes that would give me the opportunity to purchase at a volume discount—for instance pint or even quart containers as opposed to the rather small 4 ounce bottle that is to my knowledge the only option. People you hang out with my think that you own a pet koala, but this product works as advertised!

up to now its working great, don't want to jinx it, but haven't seen any spiders in the house since I started using it, not even in the conservatory.
