There is nothing better than enjoying summertime at the cabin, the city lakes or in the garden. As much as I love to chill in the summer outdoors, there always seems to be an uninvited visitor -those pesky mosquitos. It’s easy to forget about these little buggers until I’m itching away at the welts on my ankles. In the last several years, I have steered clear of the deet based repellents in favor of Para Kito products as a more natural alternative.

Para Kito repellents are made from essential oils so not only are they healthier on my skin, but I also don’t smell like burning chemicals. I also feel safe using the area diffusion bands on my kids when they play outside, or lending the roll on gel to friends at the cabin. This natural repellent is made with Citronella, Rosemary, Geranium, Mint, Clove, and Peppermint oils which mask human scents that would otherwise attract mosquitos.

I even took the Para Kito with me on week-long trip to Costa Rica. The waterproof area diffusion bands protected me from the bugs for 15 days so I didn’t return from vacation covered in bites. So if you are looking for something to keep your summer insect free, I would recommend giving Para Kito a try to help you enjoy your summer activities.
