We are sure that you have visited your local pharmacy and seen how many different types of mosquito repellants are available for purchase.  It can become very difficult to choose between so many name brand products, but we are here to help you make wise and educated choices on what are the best mosquito repellants.  You may have seen a television commercial for products such as Deep Woods Off, or Coleman brand products.

When choosing between mosquito repellants, the most important thing you should look for is the percentage of DEET contained in the product.  The higher percentage of DEET, the better protection you will get against mosquitoes.  You might be against using any sort of topical lotion with chemicals, or perhaps you have very sensitive skin.  Other natural repellants include tea tree oil, lavender and catnip oils.

Be sure to remember that if you are going to be swimming or heavily perspiring when you are out near mosquitoes, that you re-apply your mosquito repellants as necessary.  Check the bottle for information on how long the product is supposed to work.  You will be glad that you protected yourself!
