I bought four spray cans from Amazon after glowing success with one. Then a neighbor advised the repellent was being sold in our supermarket for $2 less!
I've tried a bunch of organics, and none seem to work across the board. Some work well for black flies, some for ticks, some for skitas. You've had good luck with this yourself?
