without DEET or the harsh smell of traditional bug spray.
DOES IT ACTUALLY WORK?
Greenheads are the reason this exists. Most repellents — including DEET — barely faze them, which is why anyone who’s spent a July on a salt marsh knows the misery. We built this around geraniol, a plant compound proven to repel biting flies, then backed it with lemongrass, clove, and cinnamon oils for a formula tuned to the worst the coast throws at you. Built for greenheads first — and it handles ticks, mosquitoes, and gnats on the same trip.
INGREDIENTS
No DEET, no synthetic chemicals, no mystery. Just a plant-based formula with 7.5% botanical actives, built to work and go on smooth — without the harsh smell of traditional bug spray. Here’s everything in the bottle:
The actives — what does the repelling:
Geraniol — the lead active, a plant-derived compound proven to repel greenheads and other biting flies.
Lemongrass oil — a fresh, citrusy botanical that broadens the repellent profile.
Clove oil — a potent aromatic oil that reinforces performance against biting insects.
Cinnamon oil — a warm, aromatic plant oil that helps deter insects through scent.
The supporting cast — why it sprays well and lasts:
Coconut oil — a lightweight carrier that spreads the formula evenly across skin.
Mineral oil — helps the formula go on evenly and slows how fast it evaporates, so it lasts longer.
Isopropyl myristate — a skin-conditioning agent that improves the spray feel and cuts the greasiness.
Isopropyl alcohol — helps the spray apply evenly and dry down light, not sticky.
Vanillin — a natural fixative that helps the active oils linger longer on skin.
Glycerol monooleate — keeps the oils and water evenly blended so every spray is consistent.
Vitamin E (tocopherol) — an antioxidant that protects the botanical oils from breaking down over time.
Plant-based, family made, and built for the worst the marsh can throw at you.
