doTERRATerraShield Essential Oil Outdoor Blend - 15 mL

Great stuff- strong in smell but will keep critters off of you. Citronella isn’t that great I’ve learned that

This is a must have for defense against bugs! I use an 8oz glass spray bottle, put in 15-20 drops & fill with distilled water. Spray it on your shoes, legs,/pants/shorts & arms, neck. I was a camp RN during summer & never got any bites/stings. Campers were using bug spray with DEET & still getting bit. This is a very safe product & definitely worth your money! Highly recommend!!!

Doterra has great products, although a little pricey, well worth it!

Mosquitos love me and I have tried everything! The only thing that used to work for me was 100% DEET and that stuff is nasty! It literally melted the paint off the jeep when my DEET covered leg rubbed the jeep side!An American living in Cabo recommended this and I have now used it on numerous trips and I got very few bites. I use it in conjunction with ‘Alfresco Anti Bug Bite Moisturiser’ which was recommended by a friend of mine whose family lives in Texas.I also recently bought ‘The Bug Bite Thing’ to remove the venom on the few bites that I get rather than constantly applying anti-itch cream.I place 3 drops of the oil on each ankle every morning and evening (even though the instructions say one drop is enough). I use the lotion every evening before going outside. In places where the mosquitos are out during the day, I also use the lotion in the morning. The smell of both is not offensive; but if you use the oil around your neck/shoulders, the smell can be a bit strong.One bottle lasted for 60 days of travel.

This works as good as or better than the deep stuff which is toxic! Keeps mosquitoes away. I even use it on my pets.

I was recently in Hawaii and it had been raining a lot. In the forest, it seemed like the mosquitos were literally celebrating my arrival. They tried biting my watch, cell phone and finger nails. I applied this oil, heavily, about every thirty minutes to exposed parts and they didn't seem to bite. The flew all around me and threatened to bite, but during the trip I received relatively few bites, probably during the gaps in my applications.I like the fragrance and just ordered another bottle. It probably doesn't work as well as DEET but I really have no idea as I'm not going to put that on my skin.Also, the company from whom I bought this oil gave outstanding customer service -- they went out of their way to make sure I received the product in time for my trip. It's so nice to experience that kind of service!

Quality product!

I swear the mosquitos all plot to bite me. I've struggled with mosquito bites my whole life. This does the trick! I was at a silent disco when my friend busted these out. He does his research when buying things so I knew he had the best of the best. I trusted his choice and really you should trust mine too. This stuff is amazing.I do a single drop each on the back of my neck, my two wrists, and my two ankles. I never get bit when I remember to wear these. An application in the morning lasts all day, but if I'm out in the evening I reapply. Just to be safe.I've never put this stuff on my clothing. So I can't tell you if it stains or works the same way.The scent of most repellents that come in a can from the chain drugstore smells horrendous. This oil though, smells great! It's got a very musky citrusy scent to it. I'll keep buying these as long as they keep making them!Edit June 2020: I’ve had this same bottle for 4 years now and I’m certain it’ll last another year. Looks like I’m purchasing another bottle next summer!! I’ve shared with friends and family; this bottle really goes around. I’m surprised how long it’s lasted!! Still works great.
