'Skeeter Skidaddler Testimonies

Sierra Nevada Mountians in California

Picture
I just wanted to let you know that my family went camping in the Sierras last weekend. We packed the Skeeter Skiddadler and thank goodness we did!  The second we got out of our car at the camp ground the bugs were all over us. We quickly put on Skeeter Skiddadler and they were gone!  With a daily application I didn’t see any flying insects on me or my family all weekend.
What an awesome product.               Greg K - Southern California

Its the only natural product I've found that works on our yellow biting flies.

Mekong Delta region of southeast Vietnam

I recently returned from the Mekong Delta region of southeast Vietnam. This was my first trip overseas. The area I stayed in is the rice growing region of the Tra Vinh province slightly inland from the South China Sea. I decided to try out some 'Skeeter Skidaddler, an insect repellent highly recommended for travelers to this part of the world.

The people here sleep under a mosquito netting canopy over their beds year-round. The first several nights I decided not to use any repellent. I was bitten before going to bed and also sustained a few bites while under the netting. The bites were painful and itchy. Later I began using the 'Skeeter Skidaddler product, and to my amazement the bites subsided down to only one or two per day. By the end of the vacation my wife had folded up the mosquito netting, tossed it in the corner, and opened the windows and door from our room to the outside. We then enjoyed a slight jungle breeze at night without the fear of getting eaten alive.

 Boundary Waters of northern Minnesota

'Skeeter Skidaddler went with me on an 8-day trip into the Boundary Waters of northern Minnesota.  Rest assured I had ample supply of other commercial repellants, too.  I'm happy to report that not only did 'Skeeter Skidaddler perform to the same standards as other heavy duty sprays, but its blend of natural oils provided a welcomed relief from the DEET-based products.  What a great smell--something not to be taken lightly when in the back country!

 Haiti

Haiti - Earthquake Relief Effort
I have been working on and off for the past year in Haiti for a volunteer organization helping the people of Haiti after the earthquake which destroyed much of the area around Port Au Prince. They have a huge problem with mosquitoes carrying a type of encephalitis, which causes limbs to swell and is very difficult to treat. (ed - as well as Malaria and Dengue Fever)

The first time I went I brought a few bottles of 'Skeeter Skidaddler because it had been very effective here in Maine against mosquitos and even blackflies. It excelled in Haiti, tothe point that people who had been using products with DEET in them were asking to use my 'Skeeter Skidaddler because it worked just as well as theirs (or better) without the toxicity of DEET.

This last time I brought ten bottles down and it was quickly divvied up between the 100 or so volunteers. Working in an area still without electricity, running water or waste treatment is tough, but add a lot of biting mosquitoes and no-see-ems and it can be terrible. With 'Skeeter Skidaddler, we not only had one less thing to worry about, but we smelled better, too :-)

Last weekend I played a round of golf. On the first 9 the horse flies were landing on the back of my head, and biting a lot. We took a break and I put just a little 'Skeeter Skidaddler on the back of my head. Played the back 9, and no horse flies, no bites.

The product 'Skeeter Skidaddler is miraculous. Not only does it have a pleasant scent but it is very effective. I have no bites this summer and have a hissy fit when I can't find it. I have used it in jungle atmosphere (ed - the Amazon Jungle) and nothing bit. Cheers!         - Cherie P

We spent the week at Moosehead Lake, Maine. Our friends who worn DEET were bitten. I never got bit and those with me commented on the earthy smell of 'Skeeter Skidaddler.

'Skeeter Skidaddler is the best! I've worn it in the garden and up north. Took us through black fly season in Washington County, Maine. My kids each take a bottle to camp. I feel great giving my kids something DEET free that really works!                         - Rachel B.

Thank you for introducing me to your 'Skeeter Skidaddler – it really works! Two of my kids have asked me to get them some, because it works!      - Priscilla B.

Bought some last year still have a bottle after using it all summer with three children and love it. Works great!             - Tina

We love the 'Skeeter Skidaddler! My husband and I are trail runners and we always use the 'Skeeter Skidaddler. The skeeters steer clear of us!                                             - Erin M.

We love your product. We walk the woods every day to exercise...never get bit, great product.          - the Murphy's

Tried 'Skeeter stuff and climbed Mt Douglas. It worked really well on the wood trails and I had a 1 year old in the back pack. The bugs didn't bother him or me and he didn't have any on him. Thanks!       - Jana H. (ed - This is Douglas Mountain, west of Sebago Lake, truly a mosquito infested hike.)
