Keep Mosquitos at Bay, Mess-Free, With These Bracelets

Nothing ruins a lovely camping trip or warm evening like being swarmed or bitten by mosquitos. Bug spray is always an option, of course, but it often leaves you feeling sticky and smelly when applied. These mosquito guard bracelets offer an easier, quicker, mess-free alternative. Each bracelet is made with plant-based oils that naturally repel mosquitos so all you have to do to ward them off is slide one over your wrist or ankle. The smell of the citronella, lemongrass, and geraniol will do the rest. The spiral bracelets are stretchy enough to fit adults, teens, and children alike, and with 48 bracelets per pack there’s more than enough for the whole family.
