I know there are at least a dozen natural brands out there. I haven't tried this yet, but I'm planning on getting it for my kids. http://californiababy.com/natural-bug-blend-bug-repellent-spray-6-5-oz.html If you have a health food store, Whole Foods, or Earth Fare nearby you can get a natural bug spray with safer ingredients.

I did get a few bites, but not too bad. Garlic just keeps people away(no, only kidding, I know what you are talking about). Skin so soft by Avon works well too, but still not as good as deet. I hate mosquito's, but they LOVE me.

It's decent and it smells like citronella, but you're going to get bitten if you don't have the deet. There's a bug spray that I like called Naturpel.
