If you are concerned about the environment and you don�t want to use harsh chemicals on you or your loved ones, you may want to use a natural mosquito repellant.  There are many natural mosquito repellant products to select from on the market today.  Many products contain chemicals such as DEET, which may cause skin reactions or allergic rashes on those with sensitive skin.

The natural mosquito repellant products available combine technology and research with nature�s gifts to create repellents that will work to deter mosquitoes and other biting insects from you.  Organic repellents combine ingredients like catnip oil, pennyroyal oil, rosemary oil and glycerin; all ingredients known to repel insects like mosquitoes.  In fact, researchers have shown that catnip oil is ten times more effective than DEET in repelling mosquitoes.

Used in conjunction with other herbal remedies, a natural mosquito repellant is the perfect way to keep your family�s health in balance.  Certain essential oils can also be used as repellents, but you must be sure to test them on skin first to avoid allergic reactions.  Oils like tea tree, lavender, lemon grass, and cedar have been shown to be effective against mosquito bites.
