We spend a lot of time out in gorgeous remote jungly places planting and nurturing trees. The one downside about these places is the number of biting insects. These varmints can bite right through clothing (especially horseflies, my personal bête noire).
We've had this natural midge and mosquito repellent textile spray imported from Germany. It contains Geraniol, a primary component of rose oil, palmarosa oil and citronella oil, which is effective at deterring most flying biting insects. If you've been the victim of insect bites you will know that they can bite or sting through fabric as well as directly onto exposed skin. This repellent is designed to be applied to fabrics, though it is safe to use directly on skin as well. For all outdoors activities when you’re likely to come into contact with biting insects, this midge and mosquito repellent textile spray is the ultimate natural deterrent. Give everything you are wearing a good squirt and you will smell loathsome to insects for a good six hours. The great thing about it is that it is made from natural ingredients so it's kind to the environment, kind to your skin and clothes, and we think it smells nice too. We'd wear it as perfume. Well, that's going a bit far, but we'll consider anything rather than get bitten every time we go out to tend to the trees.
