A real favorite by parents and kids, MooGoo's Tail-Swat Body Spray is a natural spray that is DEET-free and skin friendly. While it is technically not an insect repellent, it does work and is so friendly to the body that you can even spray it on kids' faces. Wow!

For those looking for a more aggressive repellent, Cutter is an option. It contains a low amount of DEET, only 7%, so it’s great for kids in areas where there will be a lot of bugs. It will help to repel mosquitoes that may transmit the Chikungunya, Zika, Dengue and West Nile viruses, all very common living in Asia. They also make some handy wipes which are great for when you’re on the go.
