When exploring the great outdoors, there is not much more irritating than fending off nature´s disease-carrying pests. Sprays and creams that promise to repel bugs are often ridden with unfriendly odors and can sometimes be a mess to apply. Thankfully, a company called Ben´s developed a solution to these smelly, messy alternatives.
Ben´s bug repellent wipes are unscented and repel ticks and bugs often encountered during hiking or camping trips. Each box comes with 12 individually wrapped wipes that can be smoothed over skin in a thin layer for hours of repelling power. The wipes are CDC-approved and contain 30 percent DEET, which is the minimum amount of the product recommended to guard against infections.
As opposed to sprays and creams, the wipes store more compactly and are easy to whip out and apply, without disrupting your fellow travelers with the nauseating scent of the spray. Stash a few in your knapsack and prepare your skin for the inevitable army of insects while traipsing along your favorite hiking trail.
