Insect repellent (natural) is a type of product designed to keep insects such as mosquitoes, flies, and ticks away from the human body. Unlike chemical-based repellents, natural insect repellents are made from plant-based ingredients and essential oils. Common ingredients include citronella, eucalyptus, lavender, and tea tree oil. These natural components are known for their ability to mask the scents that attract insects, thereby reducing the likelihood of bites and stings. Natural insect repellents are often preferred by individuals seeking a safer, eco-friendly alternative to synthetic options. They are available in various forms, including sprays, lotions, and candles, making them versatile for different needs and preferences. Additionally, natural insect repellents are generally considered to be less irritating to the skin and are suitable for use on children and those with sensitive skin.
