    I got a couple of these in my garden. I love them.

    when I go out to work in the garden I grab a couple leaves, roll them around between my hands and rub them on my exposed skin.

    usually works for a few hours and works really well. for example without it I’ll get bitten 10-15 times. with it on maybe 2-5 times.

    highly recommend if you garden outside in humid or hot climates.

      Im not loving a plan where i get bitten twice in a few hours.

      Instead of going outside and rubbing plants on me ill stay inside and fill the air with poison.

        That’s fine. I get it. I’m the same way usually.

        because of the increase of groceries I expanded my garden and saved myself around $900 last year in groceries alone.

        this year I’ll break even with what it cost to build and probably be in the green a bit towards the end.
