use Avon skin so soft instead
it's effective, yet not chemical or anything and smells decent

They have those cool little repellant patches on QVC that don't go on your skin but instead they stick to your shirt or any other piece of clothing and the mosquitos stay away. I love this product and think they are such a great idea because I used to hate the sprays and creams and etc. I've used these for awhile now and havent had a bug bite in at least a year. You may want to try some from QVC, the name of the product is No Buzz Zone Set of 50 Mosquito Bug Repellent Patches. Good luck!

Avon has a product called Skin So Soft. It it a light lotion that repels bugs. Used it when I worked at a Boy Scout camp one summer. It was great and didn't stink.

I would say Avon. No matter what you use, test a small area on the baby first to make sure there's no reaction. Our daughter has sensative skin and I have no probs at all with Avon. Others leave her red and irritated.

For my little one I use a product manufactured by Druide (www.druide.ca) - It is citronella essential oil. I feel safe putting this into my palm and rubbing his hair-especially the back close to his neck, spritzing it onto his clothing and applying it directly to his legs and arms. I would not apply it directly to his face as he would end up rubbing it into his eyes. He has never shown a reaction and the stuff really works. We have mosquitoes year round.

None. All are chemicals and not a good idea for babies. Use a netting to keep the bugs away.

Look for the ones that say they are for children and make sure it does not contain DEET- it causes cancer.
