Mosquito Repellent:
Summer is all about outdoors and fun, but with our favorite season, unfortunately comes nature’s most loathed insect: mosquitos.
Ever since having a baby, I am very careful about the products I use on her and have become hyper aware at the amount of unnecessary chemicals we use. I found THIS organic repellent last summer and it has worked wonderfully. I use it on myself, too!
This description is straight from their website: Fit Organic Mosquito Repellent is made from organic lemongrass and organic oleic acid to provide your family with a safe, synthetics-free mosquito repellent that offers protection from mosquitos for up to three hours. Containing no harmful chemicals, Fit Organic Mosquito Repellent is free of DEET and Picaridin, making it safe for pregnant women and small children.
Repellent Patches:
We also ordered some of these last year and they’ve been so great. My little girl loves to put the “tickas” (stickers) on! These are made with plant based essential oils: Citronella, Lemongrass, Rosemary, and Peppermint. These are so easy to pack for a vacation or just throw a pack in the diaper bag. You simply put a sticker on your kids shirt or shorts and those pesky mosquitos will steer clear!
