Say Goodbye to Bugs (and Chemicals!): Why Bug-A-Boo is Your New Best Friend

Spring, summer, and fall are such amazing seasons to enjoy the outdoors. But let’s be real — along with all the beauty comes the battle against mosquitoes, ticks, and other creepy crawlers. Whether you’re planning a camping trip, hiking adventure, or just a good old-fashioned backyard BBQ, bug protection is a must.
Most people reach for insect repellents with DEET because, well, it works. But…have you ever stopped to wonder what else it might be doing besides chasing bugs away?
Let’s take a closer look — and find out why Bug-A-Boo from Lemongrass Spa could be your new go-to for safe, natural protection!
DEET: What’s the Big Deal?
DEET (short for a very long chemical name, N,N-Diethyl-meta-toluamide) has been around since the 1940s. It’s known for keeping mosquitoes, ticks, and all sorts of pests away.
But here’s the thing — it’s not exactly harmless.
If you read the fine print on a DEET-based repellent, you’ll see warnings like:
“HAZARDS TO HUMANS: Causes substantial but temporary eye injury. Harmful if swallowed. May cause skin reactions. Wash hands thoroughly after use.”
Umm, yikes! Sounds more like directions for handling hazardous materials than something we’d want on our skin, right?
The Not-So-Sweet Side of DEET
Here’s a little more on why you might want to think twice before using DEET:
- Skin Irritation: From redness to rashes and even blisters — DEET can be rough on sensitive skin.
- Nervous System Effects: In rare cases, overexposure has been linked to headaches, dizziness, and even seizures.
- Environmental Impact: DEET doesn’t just stay on you. It can run off into water sources, affecting fish and other aquatic life.
- Concerns for Kids and Pets: Smaller bodies = higher risk. Kids and pets are more vulnerable to chemicals like DEET.
If you’re anything like me, that list gives you pause. But here’s the good news — you don’t have to settle for risky chemicals to stay bug-free.
Meet Bug-A-Boo: A Natural, Safer Choice
Bug-A-Boo by Lemongrass Spa is a plant-powered bug spray that offers real protection without the scary warnings.
It’s made with essential oils like citronella, lavender, and lemongrass — all known for keeping bugs at bay naturally.
Here’s how easy it is to use:
- Shake well before each use (to blend all the oils!)
- Spray onto your skin, clothes, and even around your outdoor space
- Rub it in gently
- Reapply every 2 hours or more often if you’re sweating or swimming
That’s it — safe, simple, and effective!
