Nantucket Spider Original Bug Repellent for People - 4 oz | Repels Mosquitos, Biting Flies & No-See-Ums | Deet-Free Essential Oil Insect Repellent

I have an outdoor job, and there are many biting flies where I work. I have used many other natural bug sprays as Deet products make me sick. Certain prickly pear products used to work great but are no longer protected against biting flies and do not last through hot days with heavy sweating. Nantucket spider repels these insects greatly. For example, I was swarmed by greenheads (deerflies) before wearing Nantucket spider, ran to the vehicle, sprayed myself and hat liberally (with greenheads hat spray is essential as that is where they like to attack), and went back to the area with the flies. As a result, they were no longer swarming and didn't see another one all day. Also worked on mosquitoes and gnats. The best part is that I sweat a lot which makes most bug sprays fall right off me, but this stuff is made from essential oils, so it binds a lot better, which makes it last longer, and I do not have to reapply as often. Sprayed on clothing and does not stain. The smell is powerful but pleasant. I find it almost like a woodsy cologne.

I love this stuff. All natural and works for bugs and ticks. And it smells wonderful too!

This product is as advertised , it works great to repel insects and a very pleasant smell. I have purchased my second bottle already, it's very popuwith my coworkers!

Was taking a trip to Costa Rica where it's rainy season which equals lots of mosquitos. This year the mosquitos were about three times as worse as last year. If there is one mosquito in a mile radius it will find me so I am always searching, buying and testing sprays. I brought two bottles and used both of them over 10 days. My friends that I traveled with were using a variety of other organic brands and got bit like crazy. Even in the watering as we were waiting for waves! It even worked over sun screen which was insane. I applied often, everywhere including my hair and clothes and it didn't stain a thing. I just bought 4 more bottles, one to send to my mom who also gets bit, one to keep in my backyard, one to keep in my car and on to keep in my bag for spontaneous dinners outside and when I am walking around at dusk when it's the worst. I AM STOCKING UP ON THIS PRODUCT!

I knew of this product when I used it for the first time about a month ago. The garden was very buggy but I was miraculously spared of mosquitos bites because I have applied this amazing smell good Nantucket spray. Love it so much that I have to order it now. Thank you Nantucket team

This bug spray has a lot going for it with clean, DEET-free ingredients and a pleasant scent, but its performance is hit or miss. It’s a good choice if you want something natural and skin-friendly, but don’t expect it to last as long as stronger repellents. 🔹 Natural & Safe Formula Made with essential oils like lemongrass, rosemary, and peppermint (page 3), this spray feels light on the skin and avoids harsh chemicals. The recyclable packaging and eco-friendly branding (page 2) are also a plus. 🔹 Effectiveness Is Limited While it works initially, the protection fades quickly, especially in heavily wooded or mosquito-dense areas (page 5). Frequent reapplication is necessary, which can be inconvenient when outdoors for long periods. ✅ Pros: DEET-free with natural essential oils Pleasant herbal scent Eco-friendly packaging ❌ Cons: Needs frequent reapplication Not as strong as chemical-based repellents Effectiveness varies by environment Overall: A decent natural alternative for light outdoor use, picnics, or backyard time. But for camping, hiking, or heavy mosquito areas, you’ll likely need something stronger and longer-lasting.

Works great, mosquitoes, ants, wasps, flies, etc all found it repulsive. Exactly what I was looking for. It has a very nice, people pleasing, scent.

The bottle itself came defective. The sprayer doesn’t really work and the bottle wasn’t full. Smells amazing. Hopefully it is effective. For this price the bottle should work flawlessly.
