Natural Insect Repellents - Safe and EffectiveNatural Insect Repellents - Safe and EffectiveAuthor: Amanda StoneInsect repellent sprays are applied to the skin and clothing to discourage insects from landing on that surface. Many insects carry and spread diseases such as West Nile fever, Lyme disease, bubonic plague, and others. The use of repellents can help prevent and control outbreaks of such insect-borne diseases. Some repellents are very effective against pests, but contain synthetic ingredients that can be unsafe for humans. Natural insect repellents are highly effective, nontoxic alternatives that do not contain harmful synthetic ingredients.One of the most common active ingredients found in synthetic insect repellents is DEET (N, N-diethyl-meta-toluamide). DEET is a powerful insecticide used in over 400 products. |
