Why Insect Repellent is Necessary When Gardening
Gardens are a haven for a variety of insects. Many are beneficial for pollination and pest control but others, like mosquitoes, ticks, and flies, can be a nuisance or even pose health risks. Our vegan products do not kill insects, but they will camouflage you from them. As a brand committed to sustainability, this is an important point to note.
The common insects that could be in your garden include:
- Mosquitoes: These are very common especially in areas with standing water, like a bird bath or pond. They can carry diseases like West Nile virus and Zika virus.
- Ticks: Often found in grassy or wooded areas, ticks can transmit Lyme disease and other illnesses.
- Flies and Gnats: These pests can be annoying and sometimes bite, causing irritation and discomfort.
