Review: NO BITES! WOOHOO!!! - I needed an insect repellent and needed it delivered the same day as we were heading to a friend's "cottage" the next morning, and this product was one of the options. I thought I'd give it a try and now, 2 days after returning from the trip have already recommended it to 3 people. This is FANTASTIC!! My son is quite allergic to mosquito bites (once, he had a bite by his left temple and the whole side of his face swelled almost to the point where his eye was swollen shut) so I was pretty nervous about the "cottage" since it is carved out of the deep woods in northern Wisconsin. The cottage was a camper, so we slept in a tent and were outside the entire time - the only clearing of the woods was for the camper, the tent and the fire pit, so mosquitoes were abundant. As soon as we got there I applied this to all exposed skin areas for myself and my son, then used Deep Woods Off on our clothing. My wife opted for Off all over. I applied it at 4pm, went to bed at 11pm. My son came home the next morning with ZERO bites. I came home with one - in the middle of my back (where I had not applied this lotion) and through my shirt (where I had applied Off). My wife came home with about 7-8 bites. PROS: - Goes on like a lotion, so if you do it right you ensure complete coverage, unlike a spray where you could miss (and half of what you spray doesn't land on your skin, anyway). Get under the tops of your socks, up inside your shorts and sleeves, ears, neck, face... - Almost no smell at all. Perhaps a little at first, very mild, but dissipates right away. - You're not inhaling it like you do with sprays. - It lasts. Not sure about 12 hours, but it lasted for us for at least 7 hours - one application. While wearing shorts/short sleeves. CONS: - It feels a bit greasy once it's on. It still feels a bit greasy hours later, but it doesn't look greasy. - Small tubes - only 2 oz. That said, one application covered my and my 7 year old, and I could probably do that at least 2-3 more times out of this one tube. NEUTRAL: - We still had clouds of skeeters buzzing around us. It's not purported to be a magical energy barrier that keeps them from flying all around you, but it does keep them from biting you. - They will still bite where you don't apply it. That's not the fault of the product, it's yours. When putting it on, think like a skeeter - where can they get to? And yes, they bite through fabric so either treat the clothing or treat yourself.
Review: Absolutely recommend, despite the greasy feeling - Bought this for my August trip to Florida and Georgia. Overall, I love it! Cons: Feels greasy, and leaves you looking greasy. Attracts dirt due to the grease layer Slight smell (reminds me of scotch tape, and it doesn't bother me but it is there) Pros: Uhh.... IT WORKS! I was in Savannah Georgia, in a cemetery (Bonaventure, so FULL of lush greenery right next to the river). I was getting smacked in the face and ears by mosquitoes but not one single bite. I call that a miracle, honestly. I was out doing paddle boarding down narrow water ways surrounded by lush foliage in Florida at dusk and dawn- not a single bite. I'm not sure how water resistant this is, since I didn't get into the water while using it. I did, however, sweat profusely due to the humidity and heat but it never seemed to wear off. Also use sunscreen with it without issue. I'm not a fan of it feeling somewhat gross, but I take that over getting bit. I spent 4 days outside in Florida and Georgia and I didn't get bit. I realize I sound like a broken record, but I'm just so amazed. I've used Off Spray in the past (I live in the woods in Texas) and usually still get bit a couple times so it was amazing how much better this worked. I think with it being a lotion, that helps too. I didn't put it on my face since I break out so easily, but I did use it around my neck. No issues. It is small, so if you're going to be gone for an extended time, or be using it on multiple people, then I'd get more than one. It does cover well, though.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does it smell? I use Off Deep Woods which has that citrus-y weird smell. Is this similar, milder, stronger in terms of smell?**
A: This should be much milder than Off Deep Woods aerosol that I have used.  I can smell the Ultrathon, but it is so much more kind to me than the aerosols.  And you don't spray it so it can't end up in your nose (unless you intentionally put it there!).  This is probably the best (or one of the best) smelling DEET-based repellent.  DEET is very effective but the smell and inhalation were big negatives for me, and I feel that this lotion solves those problems.

**Q: Will one of these last 2 weeks with daily use?**
A: That all depends what "daily use" means. Are you planning on applying it liberally or only using a drop? Will you need to re-apply after 12 hrs, or just be using it once a day? How extensive is the surface area you'll need to cover each day? In my experience, one container will not last 2 weeks. It's pretty small, being only 2 oz.

**Q: the picture of the item says 1.5 ounces but the description says 2 ounces... which one is correct?**
A: 2 ounces is correct. No more, no less, but enough to last for 2 people on Koh Phi Phi Island for 5 days.

**Q: Can it be used on the face and neck?**
A: This repellent is pretty strong....Which means it works.  I have and do use it on my neck and ears.  I have not used it on my face.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great, but leaves your hands chemically smelling
*by J***S on September 1, 2016*

Used this product for my trip to Costa Rica and was impressed by it's power. I went for a ton of hikes in the rainforest on my trip and I used this almost everyday. The reason why I know it worked well is because I applied it to most of my body except for one day when I forgot to put it on one of my legs, and I ended up getting 5 bites on that exact leg. The reason why I bought this product in the first place is because it was one of the only repellents I could find that was small enough to bring carry-on on the plane that was not aerosol. Aerosol repellents are not good for the environment and therefore are looked down upon in Costa Rica, and they are also not allowed on the plane, so I knew I needed a lotion that was TSA compliant sized. The bad part about this product is that the smell is very intense and you need to use your hands to apply it (obviously). The good thing about aerosols are that you don't need to apply it onto your hands at all, so you don't have these chemicals and the repellent smell lingering on your hands until you wash it off. This is the reason why I gave this product 4 stars instead of 5.
