Bug Off Bug Spray

Bug Off Bug Spray for Fresh Outdoor Adventures

Bug Off Bug Spray is a handcrafted botanical spray designed to help you enjoy more time outdoors with confidence. Whether you're gardening, hiking, camping, relaxing around the backyard fire pit, or cheering from the sidelines at a ball game, this refreshing spray makes it easy to enjoy nature with a thoughtfully crafted blend of herbs and essential oils. Best of all, the lightweight formula feels fresh on your skin without leaving behind a sticky residue.

I handcraft Bug Off Bug Spray with witch hazel, organic lemon balm, peppermint, lavender, and rosemary infused into the formula, then finish it with lemongrass, thyme, rosemary, and cedarwood essential oils. Together, these carefully selected botanicals create a crisp, herbaceous aroma that's become a favorite companion for outdoor adventures. As a result, every spray leaves your skin feeling refreshed while surrounding you with a clean, botanical scent.

Every batch is handcrafted in small quantities inside my Ohio workshop using premium botanical ingredients and traditional herbal methods. Because spending time outdoors should be enjoyable, Bug Off Bug Spray offers a simple, plant-inspired addition to your outdoor routine.

The Advantages of Bug Off Bug Spray

Outdoor adventures are even better when you're prepared. That's why Bug Off Bug Spray is designed for quick, convenient application before spending time outside. Simply spray onto exposed skin and reapply as needed while enjoying your favorite outdoor activities. As a result, adding this botanical spray to your routine takes only seconds.

Meanwhile, witch hazel creates a lightweight base that dries quickly without feeling greasy or sticky. In addition, organic lemon balm, peppermint, lavender, and rosemary are carefully infused to create a nourishing botanical foundation. Finally, lemongrass, thyme, rosemary, and cedarwood essential oils provide the fresh, woodsy aroma that makes Bug Off Bug Spray a favorite for days spent outdoors.

Whether you're working in the garden, exploring a hiking trail, relaxing by the lake, or enjoying an evening around the campfire, Bug Off Bug Spray helps make every outdoor adventure a little more enjoyable.

Keep away from children. Keep away from eyes. Discontinue use if irritation occurs. Do not store in direct sunlight. 

Bug Off Bug Spray Ingredient Spotlight

Witch Hazel

Witch hazel creates the lightweight foundation of Bug Off Bug Spray. It dries quickly, feels refreshing on the skin, and won't leave behind a heavy or sticky residue. That makes it an excellent base for an outdoor spray you'll want to use throughout the day.

Organic Lemon Balm

Lemon balm has been appreciated in herbal wellness for generations because of its fresh, citrusy aroma. In Bug Off Bug Spray, I slowly infuse organic lemon balm to create a botanical foundation that complements the essential oil blend while adding a naturally refreshing scent.

Organic Peppermint

Peppermint brings a crisp, cooling botanical aroma that instantly feels refreshing outdoors. Its bright scent pairs beautifully with the herbal and woodsy notes in the formula, helping create the clean fragrance that makes Bug Off Bug Spray a customer favorite.

Organic Lavender

Lavender adds a soft floral balance to the blend. While the brighter herbs and essential oils provide freshness, lavender helps round out the aroma with its gentle, calming character. Together, the botanicals create a fragrance that's both refreshing and pleasant to wear.

Organic Rosemary

Rosemary has been valued in traditional herbalism for centuries because of its distinctive herbal aroma. In Bug Off Bug Spray, it adds depth to both the herbal infusion and the essential oil blend, creating a crisp scent inspired by nature.

Lemongrass Essential Oil

Lemongrass brings a bright, citrus-forward aroma that's synonymous with outdoor botanical blends. Its clean scent blends beautifully with the infused herbs while adding an energizing freshness to every spray.

Thyme Essential Oil

Thyme contributes a warm, herbaceous note that enhances the complexity of the blend. Its rich botanical aroma pairs naturally with rosemary and cedarwood, creating a well-balanced outdoor fragrance.

Rosemary Essential Oil

Rosemary essential oil intensifies the fresh herbal character of the spray. Together with the infused rosemary, it creates a vibrant botanical aroma that's crisp, clean, and unmistakably outdoorsy.

Cedarwood Essential Oil

Cedarwood adds warm, earthy notes that bring balance to the brighter citrus and herbal aromas. Its rich woodland scent completes the blend, creating a fragrance that feels grounded, fresh, and perfect for outdoor adventures.

Why These Ingredients Make Bug Off Bug Spray Unique

Every ingredient in Bug Off Bug Spray was selected with intention. Rather than relying on a single essential oil, I combined traditionally infused herbs with a carefully balanced blend of botanical essential oils to create a refreshing outdoor spray inspired by nature.

Organic lemon balm, peppermint, lavender, and rosemary create the herbal foundation through a slow infusion, while witch hazel provides a lightweight, fast-drying base. Meanwhile, lemongrass, thyme, rosemary, and cedarwood essential oils add layers of fresh citrus, aromatic herbs, and earthy woodland notes. Together, these thoughtfully selected ingredients create a spray that's as enjoyable to wear as it is to keep on hand for outdoor adventures.

Because I handcraft every batch in small quantities, I can focus on quality, consistency, and carefully selected botanical ingredients from start to finish.

🌿 From My Herbalist's Bench

If you've ever spent a summer evening swatting at bugs instead of enjoying the sunset, you understand exactly why I created Bug Off Bug Spray.

I wanted something I'd actually enjoy reaching for before heading outside. Not a heavy, overpowering spray, but a lightweight botanical blend with a fresh scent inspired by the herbs growing in my own garden. By slowly infusing organic lemon balm, peppermint, lavender, and rosemary, then blending them with lemongrass, thyme, rosemary, and cedarwood essential oils, I created an outdoor spray that's refreshing, easy to use, and made with ingredients I trust.

Every bottle of Bug Off Bug Spray is handcrafted in my Ohio workshop using the same care I'd use for my own family. My hope is that it helps you spend less time worrying about the little annoyances of being outside and more time making memories—whether you're camping, gardening, watching baseball games, or simply relaxing on the porch with the people you love.
