safe, healthy canadian bug spray that works + outdoor product guide

Struggling with summertime skin irritation? Whether it's bug bites, allergies, scrapes, scratches, or rashes, summertime fun usually brings about minor skin irritation for us and little ones alike that can cause anywhere from mild to major discomfort. The catch is, many of the products that we use to prevent and treat these irritations often contain ingredients that we'd rather steer clear of as much as possible. So then, what should we use instead?
