How do I use No No-See-Um?
No No-See-Um can be applied directly to the skin or to clothing. For best results, shake well and apply generously and repeat as often as necessary. Avoid contact with eyes. Keep out of reach of children. No no-see-um has been proven to provide up to four hours of protection against no-see-ums, mosquitos, and black flies.
DEET freeā¦.what does that mean?
DEET (N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide) is a highly toxic chemical found in most bug repellents. When ingested, it may affect the central nervous system. It can cause skin irritation in sensitive persons. High concentrations applied to the skin can cause blistering, followed by severe scarring. DEET has also been implicated in seizures among children.
Our natural ingredients are safe, gentle and effective and are not harmful to humans, pets or the environment. Our formula works on insects without harming or killing them. Biting insects follow the scent of carbon dioxide gas and our skin and breath naturally give off this gas. Our product has a distinctive, but very pleasant, odor which makes it difficult for pesky insects to locate the carbon dioxide released from our bodies.
Do you test on animals?
No No-See-Um does NOT conduct product or ingredient tests of any kind on animals.
Is your product safe on pets?
Our products are made from all natural ingredients that are safe for both humans and pets. However, please note, we have never tested our products on animals.

Is No No-See-Um safe to use on people with sensitive skin?
Everyone’s skin and physiology is different and will react differently to certain ingredients. Even all natural ingredients can cause irritations. We always recommend doing a patch test prior to using any product. Place a small amount on the inside of the wrist or inner thigh and watch for a reaction. If you see any redness, discontinue using the product.
