I hate bugs, I mean who really likes them right? We get them bad in Florida especially mosquitos. And of course mosquitos love me! One thing I hate more than the bugs? Bug Spray! I do not like to spray myself down, I will if I have too. I just feel dirty and sticky and yuck.
That’s wear Bug Bands come in. I was sent a Bug Band to try out and a few other “Bug Band” products to try as well. Bug Band products are a deet free insect repellent. I was excited to try it the band. It comes a little large but can be adjusted and made to fit a smaller wrist as well. You could even use it on your leg. My disappointed is the smell…. Do they make bug repellant that doesn’t smell like bug repellant? I had to wash my hands three times to get the smell off from just looking at it.
Bug Band comes in a towellette , a wristband, spray lotion and a diffuser. It’s safe to use on children and pets and has a plant based formula so it’s safe to us around food.
I’m sure we will be using this more as the summer winds down. That seems to be the busiest bug time for us.
Have you tried the Bug Bands yet?
No we haven’t but they sound interesting.
We just picked this up to try, but I haven’t had a chance to try it yet.
I’m going to have to get this for my husband. He is a bug bite magnet.
I have seen products like this over the last few years and have never tried one. I keep meaning to give it a shot – even if it smells bad, I think I would prefer it to the icky-sticky bug sprays.
These would be great to have for a trip to the lake! There aren’t many bugs in our area but when you head out to the lake that all changes.
I have seen these in the stores, but was afraid they wouldn’t work, now I think I might have to pick up some for our camping trips.
I love how unobtrusive it is.
I so need this! The bugs around here will pick you up and fly you away!
I’ve never heard of them before, the smell of bug spray is horrible, so strong and you can never fully get it to go away.
We need some of these, the insects have been awful this year.
I like the idea of a towelette.
I like the idea of it — but the smell would irritate me too. Can you wear it on an ankle?
My sister likes these too! I have spraying stuff on me!
I’m always a little wary of the smell! I always close my nose!!
I was wondering if those work, but the smell would definitely be a deterrent.
I am so glad we don’t have Mosquitos here. I need to keep this in mind when traveling though, my sensitive skin doesn’t like when I spray stuff on it either.
This is so much easier than spaying stuff everywhere!
There’s a severe bub problem where I live due to the water and fields, so this would definitely come in handy!
I could of really used something like that this weekend. The mosquitoes in Michigan are man eaters.
We’ve had a lot of rain this summer, so the mosquitoes are horrible… this is just what I need!
I have been dying to know how well these work. I also hate bug spray, it stinks and I don’t like the feel. I will have to get some of these though because even though they smell at least I don’t have to cover my entire being in it.
Gah, I hate bugs too. I’ll have to check these out.
