Going to check tomorrow. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-and-preggo-safe-bug-spray#post-2278367 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 19:24:59 +0000 Foodnerd81 2278367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: if I had ordered earlier, yes, but I forgot until like 6:30, past their deadline. Like I said- so dumb. I even saw the "get it by weds if you order in the next four hours" thing. :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-and-preggo-safe-bug-spray#post-2278361 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 19:17:59 +0000 Dagny 2278361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Badger Bug Balm is awesome. It's a pain to put on, but works great. I wore it in the rainforest in Panama for two weeks and it worked really well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-and-preggo-safe-bug-spray#post-2278350 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 19:01:10 +0000 BadgerMom 2278350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The Coleman natural (or whatever it's called) works great and is pretty easy to find at big boxes! Consumer reports just did a test on them and they thought the only non-deet sprays that were effective were the Coleman natural or anything with picardin which you can sometimes find at camping stores. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-and-preggo-safe-bug-spray#post-2278345 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 18:52:40 +0000 AB810 2278345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I recently made one with essential oils that worked great if you access to them. It was 4 oz water, 2 oz witch hazel and 25 drops each of lemon and eucalyptus oil. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-and-preggo-safe-bug-spray#post-2278343 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 18:52:15 +0000 Truth Bombs 2278343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: wait, it's Monday, shouldn't it get here Wednesday if you order now? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-and-preggo-safe-bug-spray#post-2278338 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 18:42:51 +0000 Foodnerd81 2278338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: I do but it won't get here until Thursday, because I waited too long. So dumb- it's been in my cart since lunch time and I forgot to place the order! I did order tonight anyway but I think it will arrive Thursday evening and we leave that morning. But I think the target near me had the California baby one so I can drive there, I just didn't feel like making a target trip this week. Bleh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-and-preggo-safe-bug-spray#post-2278333 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 18:37:53 +0000 Truth Bombs 2278333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have Amazon Prime? I ordered the California Baby bug spray from there so you would get that by Wednesday. Safe for everyone and pretty effective. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-toddler-and-preggo-safe-bug-spray#post-2278313 Mon, 31 Aug 2015 18:11:17 +0000 Foodnerd81 2278313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was planning to order Sawyers bug spray with picaridin, based on some recommendations, but of course I waited to long and it won't get here before our trip this weekend. So, recommendation for a natural but effective bug spray that's good for toddlers and pregnant ladies? Ideally one that is available in regular drug stores, though I can make a trip to target if I really have to. But something that CVS sells would be amazing. :) </p>
