About
3-4 years ago I bought your product in an Ace hardware store in Pinckney,
Michigan. I have very little of this product left, it has been worth
every dime that I paid for it. It is the
one product that really works. We have a house on Lake St. Clair, in
Canada and the black biting flies can be torture. But I pulled out your
"biteblocker" product, and gave some to my neighbors and they just rave
about the stuff. It works! I just can't say enough about it. You know,
I wish you had it in handy wipes, I would probably do my door wall screens
and window screens with it, it is just an excellent product. We just
apply a little bit and no bugs bother us!
I
would like to know where I can buy this off the shelf in the United States
and Canada. We have a Marina near our house, and I would like to take her
a sample of this product and see if it is something that she would like to
carry in her general store, not to mention, I would love to get more of it
and hopefully my friends can find it in Canada. Can you help me with
this??
Again
thanks for making a product that does exactly what it says it
does.....Blocks bug bites!!!!! - K. Boulet, Westland, Michigan

Just a thought, what if it did eliminate All the mosquitoes in your
area? It would also eliminate a food source for many birds and bats. I
use an herbal oil mosquito repellent called "Bite Blocker" and it
works flawlessly. |

Hi. I bought a case of your
product last summer before embarking on a month-long canoe trip in
the Arctic. Although I wanted to avoid the use of DEET, I took some
along just in case. In spite of mosquitoes and black flies like I
couldn't even imagine, I never felt it necessary to use any of my
emergency supply of DEET. The four members of our group all felt
that Bite Blocker was a major success. I will continue to use it
personally and have recommended that the outfitter, Black
Feather, carry it for their clients use on their trips. I was very
impressed that this product exceeded my expectations. I expect that,
with West Nile Virus, Bite Blocker could (or should) become a
household word. Thank you!

Bite Blocker is a completely harmless formula which I
field testing in Alaska last summer with GREAT success. It also went
through trials at the University of Guelph in Canada. I wrote to the guy
who did the tests, and he gave me the rundown a while back. It worked as
well as DEET for 2 hours or so, and better than "skin so soft" and
certainly better than citronella.
The
active ingredient is soybean oil, and a few plant extracts. Harmless to
you (unlike DEET which is aweful for you) and lasts about 2 hours.
Re-apply whenever you want. It doesn't smell nearly as bad as DEET. Keep
it out of your eyes, and off your forehead if you're going to be sweating,
and it stings a bit on broken/chapped skin. It works!

Fradin
says he found one new herbal product in his research, that seems to be
somewhat effective in repelling mosquitoes. Bite Blocker contains soybean
oil as its main active ingredient, along with some geranium oil and
coconut oil. It has been available in Europe for several years and was
released in the United States last year. Scientists don't quite understand
how it works, but somehow it seems to jam the receptors on mosquitoes'
antennae that allow them to zero in on victims.
The EPA has not registered soybean oil as an insect repellent because it
is derived from food-grade soybeans and is considered safe. |

I do
not want to use DEET products any more, and just read about the
efficacy of bite blocker. Can you tell me where i can buy the cream and
spray in the Louisville, KY area? My zip code is 40205.
Many thanks,
Ian

"I
have used Off, Repel, Deep Woods and other DEET products to just
walk in my yard. Those products are smelly and you have to take a
bath to remove the DEET from your skin afterwards. It was so nice to
try Bite Blocker. The fragrance was nice for women; it was
non-aerosol; it worked and it does not contain DEET."
-Sharon Strohbeck, Manassas, VA (June 30, 2003)

Blocker was very effective in repelling insects for at least 8

body sweats heavy."
