Welcome to the “Buzz About Bugs” blog. I’m Dan Ritter, and my company, BugBand, makes naturally derived insect repellents. Over the past five years, we’ve heard from countless families, outdoors men and women, gardeners and golfers who are looking for products that not only work, but are safe for people and the environment. For many people, BugBand is exactly what they’ve been looking for – its active ingredient is
Geraniol, proven by the University of Florida to be an effective alternative to synthetic repellents like
DEET.
There’s a lot of talk out there about insects and the dangers they pose, and this blog is designed to contribute to the discussion. I hope you’ll stop by often to check out more information about effective alternatives to
DEET and tips to keep you and your family insect-free.
