Great Stuff

"Product works great, I do like the pump version better! It seems to last longer than the aerosol spray. I found that spraying and then rubbing it on works best! Get the big bottle, it goes fast, especially the aerosol spray."

Ain't No Bugs On Me
Date:June 14, 2013
"This is a wonderful product . . . not only does it work, but it smells good, too. That, in itself, is high praise for an insect repellant. Lovin' this one, have been using it since introduced, and will continue to use. Thanks, Avon."

Best Repellant Ever
Date:May 15, 2013
"OMG! I've used this product recently in Florida where bugs just love to bite me. Well this particular year after using this product I came home bite free! Yes bite free! Previous years I've used other products that had high ratings but came back with infected bites and had to actually go to the doctor and be put on medication! This is by far the BEST PRODUCT EVER! Thank you Avon and Linda for encouraging me to try this spray and the wipes as I actually enjoyed our family visit this year."

Awesome Product
Date:April 24, 2013
"Living in Louisiana, keeping bug spray on hand is a necessity. But other products smell bad and leave a sticky film on your skin. Most frustrating was that my dogs would want to lick my skin after putting it on. With this product, you get none of the above. The scent is clean and it doesn't leave a sticky residue. Better yet, my dogs could care less about the spray and hardly notice I'm wearing it. As far as effectiveness goes, it excels in that area, too."

Excellent Bug Repellent
Date:October 15, 2012
"In Texas, dealing with mosquitos and chiggers is nearly constant. However, at a certain point, usually starting in August and lasting until there is a frost (if there is one), they become manic and voracious. Being outside is impossible without significant protection.
In addition to my usual Avon Bug Guard order, I purchased a couple of cans of this product with Picaridin to test. I found that it works very well and has a excellent scent."

great product but defective bottle
Date:September 16, 2012
"the product works great, but the bottle stops working after a few applications and wont spray any more and half of the bottle gets wasted. Happened on more than one bottle. I guess that's why they have it on sale."

Excellant Mesquito Repellant
Date:August 23, 2012
"I travel ALOT, from dense forest locations, beach (with sand fleas), areas around alot of water I have used this product along with the bug guard plus SPF 30 AVON and order it by the case as I also give it to my elderly mother to use. I have been the only one on alot of my trips that have not had any bites on me to ruin my trips. Now since I use this all the time and have it always in my closet I was prepared when the DFW area of Texas was and still is as of this writing suffering from the West Nile. Since I live here I have not had one mesquito bite."

Not enough
Date:August 6, 2012
"I can't go outside in the summer months without getting several mosquito bites. This is the best stuff on the market. Not 100%, but way better than Off or any of the other things you can get off the shelf at your local store. Also, it SMELLS way better!! However, it would be great if you there was a much larger bottle available for sale. I purchased 2 a little over a month ago and I'm already well on my way to emptying the second one!"

Poor nozzle design

"Although the insect repellent seems to work, the nozzle sticks. When you spray it and then stop, the product continues to spray out. This wastes the spray."

Best EVER!
Date:July 12, 2012
"I dont like traditional bug sprays (deet) and Ive tried the 'organic' kind and they dont work. My son and I are very allergic to bug bites (swell up horribly) and we live in an area where ticks are a problem and mosquitos are the size of small dogs ( well almost, not kidding). We recently camped out in our yard, 4 adults and 4 kids from 18 mos-5 yrs. We started at 6p and finished at 3pm the following day. Day 1 6pm we sprayed everyones arms and legs, never sprayed again, and no one got even 1 bite. AMAZING Job Avon. Great product, no harsh smell, safe for everyone and it works!"

Favorite Insect repellant
Date:July 7, 2012
"I am very allergic to mosquito bites and must use all precautions during the summer months to protect myself from as many bites as possible. This is my favorite Avon product and all-time favorite repellant....it is free of Deet, is easy to use, is comfortable on my skin without being greasy, gives me great protection, and the smell of it is very mild and unoffensive. I can wear it anywhere! Thanks Avon!!!"

Picaridin Bug Guard
Date:June 29, 2012
"This stuff is great. I got some for my baby granddaughter and myself because when we get bitten by a mosquito we get huge welts. This works reat, is gentle and very mild smelling. I find that even if I spray it on my shoes and pants and the baby's bike or wagon it works great. I even sprayed it directly on a pesky mosquito in my kitchen the other day and WHAM that bug was dead.
I would spray it outside or on a carpet as it does leave a slippery residue on tile floor. Keep selling and we will keep buying, Have recommended to all our friends with kids. 2 for the price of one!!!!
