Keeps Mosquitos away, just happens to draw bees and yellow jackets like a magnet
It keeps the mosquitos away, however our daughter turned into a yellow hornet magnet with the little buggers swarming her until she got stung. Just do a google search on what bee keepers use to ATTRACT bees to a hive... Lemongrass oil, Lemon Eucalyptus.
Brilliant to put this into a childs spray!!
We made our own after this, we used Witch Hazel as a base and added 5% citronella oil and 5% cedarwood oil. Have to shake it well before each use but the mosquitos AND all the bees now leave her alone.
C'mon Repel, seriously, the number one ingredient used to attract bees?????
