NATPAT Buzzpatch Mosquito & Insect Repellant Stickers

The patches are infused with a blend of natural essential oils that release a scent masking the carbon dioxide and other cues mosquitoes use to locate you. By applying the sticker to your clothing, you create a protective zone around your body without needing to apply anything directly to your skin.

Yes, because the patches are DEET-free, non-toxic, and do not require direct skin contact, they are generally considered a safer alternative for children compared to traditional chemical-based sprays.

For the best results, place the sticker on clothing closest to exposed skin, such as the collar, sleeves, or pant cuffs. If you are in an area with high mosquito activity, using multiple patches placed on different parts of your clothing can help create a more consistent protective barrier.

The adhesive is designed to stick securely to fabric while remaining easy to peel off. While it is generally safe for most clothing materials, it is always a good idea to test a small, inconspicuous area first if you are wearing delicate or expensive fabrics.

The effectiveness of the essential oils typically lasts for several hours once the sticker is removed from its sealed packaging. For all-day outings, you may need to replace the patch if you notice the scent fading.

While the patches are durable, they are not waterproof and may lose their effectiveness if submerged in water or if the adhesive is compromised by heavy perspiration. They are best suited for general outdoor activities like hiking, picnics, or backyard play.
