Kids 6oz Tick & Insect Repellent | Natrapel

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this safe for young children?
Yes. This formula is suitable for children as young as 3 months when used as directed, making it a reliable option for families with younger kids.
How long does the protection actually last?
It provides up to 12 hours of protection against mosquitoes and ticks, and up to 8 hours against other biting insects like gnats and flies.
Is this as effective as DEET?
Yes. Picaridin is a CDC-recommended active ingredient that provides strong protection against mosquitoes and ticks, similar to DEET, but without the odor or oily feel.
Will it damage clothing or gear?
No. This formula is safe to use on clothing, backpacks, and gear without damaging synthetic materials like some insect repellents can.
Does it have a strong smell or feel sticky?
No. It’s scent-free and designed to feel lightweight on the skin, so kids are more likely to tolerate wearing it throughout the day.

FOUNDED BY WOMEN. BUILT FOR ADVENTURE.

ODSS was started by mothers who saw firsthand how time outside builds resilient, confident kids. What began as helping outdoor schools equip students for all-weather learning grew into a bigger mission: Help families raise resilient, confident kids by making it easier for children to stay outside longer.

Ordering bulk with Outdoor School Shop was just as easy and seamless as I had hoped! As we open up a new program, preparing our first group of kiddos for any weather was at the top of our priority list, and ODSS came through with insight, expertise, and the coolest, most dependable gear around! Thank you ODSS!
