Bug spray for kids?
Can toddlers use bug spray? And if so, what kind is good?
TIA!

As far as I know, it's safe for them to use as long as it is DEET free. We just bought California Baby bug spray, but haven't used it yet.

I'm using Skin so soft on my kids this year. As long as its deet free, it should be fine.

Love the California Baby one! It's not greasy at all! I hated the Burt's Bees one because it's greasy and doesn't spray on as easily.

I used Natrapel when I was pregnant (found it in Rite Aid, but it is spotty to find, some places carry it, some don't). I thought it worked really well and was told it was safe for kids as well.

How does it smell? I bought Badger combo sun and bug spray and DS smelled like a citronella candle! Yuck!
