From sprays and zappers to wearable solutions, here are the top repellents Canadians swear by to keep bugs at bay this summer.
Few things ruin an outdoor gathering—or a peaceful summer evening—like a swarm of buzzing, biting insects. Whether you’re relaxing on the patio, hiking in the woods, or tending your garden, swatting at uninvited guests and itching afterwards is no way to spend the summer.
The good news is that you have loads of options for keeping the peskiest pests away this season. Classic bug sprays still exist and work great, even if you’d prefer to go DEET-free. Alternatively, opt for fans, zappers, or clever gadgets that will protect your personal space from those insect interlopers. Go ahead and plan that picnic or weekend camping trip—these bug-busting essentials have you covered.
