Mosquitoes are bad here in FL and they just love me so I have to constantly use bug spray even when no one else is getting bitten. Decided to try a new repellent that goes on dry even though the spray I was using worked very well (no bites in several months). So far I have had 6 mosquito bites since using this product. I even made sure to reapply after 6 hours (just walking my dog) but still getting bitten. I'll be going back to my other product.

Each person has a different degree of attractiveness to mosquitoes. They love me, forcing me to have to use repellents. I've always been protected by Deep Woods Off, but saw this and, based on the 25 DEET and the more than four-star reviews, decided to try it. It was like adding oxygen to a fire (for me). I applied it to my shoes, socks, clothing, and skin, and mosquitoes began lighting on me almost immediately, buzzing my ears and stinging me on an eyelid, chin, throat, hands and arms. Definitely does NOT work for me!

I went to Ghana with this and my legs look like I didn't bring any bug spray, i.e. I have a bunch of bites that have now left scars. I'm giving two stars because I continued to use it everyday given I had no other choice.

The reason why I chose this 25 DEET can was because I thought 25 would not melt nail polish so badly. Well in fact it worked even much stronger than regular nail polish remover and did instant melting. Also the pen color coating is easily off to hands. Other plastics too I think. So for this reason I will probably not use this again and threw two bottles away right after vacation. But it did work to some degrees for Bahamas sand fly. And the cap design is nice with lock feature.
