Keep bugs away naturally with our handcrafted Fly Away Lavender Bug Repellent — a DEET-free, all-natural insect spray made with steam-distilled lavender hydrosol, Bulgarian lavender, citronella essential oils, and witch hazel. Safe for skin, kid- and pet-friendly, and environmentally responsible, this spray repels mosquitoes, ticks, and other pesky insects while leaving behind a calming, relaxing lavender aroma.

A Natural Bug Spray That Actually Works and Smells Amazing

Most commercial bug sprays rely on harsh chemicals like DEET that can irritate skin, damage clothing, and harm the environment. Fly Away Lavender Spray uses the proven insect-repelling power of citronella combined with calming lavender, creating a spray that's effective against mosquitoes, ticks, fleas, ants, and other biting bugs — while also doubling as a soothing aromatherapy mist. Perfect for hikers, campers, gardeners, beach days, and outdoor families.

Multiple Benefits in One Spray

Lavender Hydrosol — Our own small-batch steam-distilled lavender hydrosol delivers a calming, relaxing aroma and naturally hydrates the skin.

Witch Hazel — Packed with antioxidants that soothe and calm skin, making this spray gentle enough for sensitive skin.

Bulgarian Lavender and Citronella Essential Oils — A powerful aromatic blend that repels insects while delivering proven aromatherapy benefits. Citronella is one of nature's most effective mosquito repellents.

How to Use

Spray directly onto skin, clothing, outdoor pillows, patio furniture, or simply into the air around you to repel mosquitoes, ticks, and other pests. Safe to reapply as often as needed. Perfect for hiking, camping, picnics, backyard barbecues, gardening, beach days, and outdoor sports. Safe for kids and pets when used as directed. Avoid contact with eyes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this bug spray safe for kids and pets?
Yes — Fly Away Lavender is DEET-free and made with all-natural ingredients, making it safe for children and pets when used as directed. Avoid spraying directly on the face and keep away from eyes. For very young children or pets with sensitive skin, we recommend a small patch test first.

Does citronella really work as a mosquito repellent?
Yes. Citronella is one of nature's most studied and effective mosquito repellents, used for decades in natural pest control. Combined with calming Bulgarian lavender and our steam-distilled lavender hydrosol, it creates a soothing spray that's tough on bugs but gentle on skin.

How often should I reapply?
Reapply every 1–2 hours during outdoor activity, or more often if you're sweating, swimming, or in heavy bug territory. Since it's 100% natural and DEET-free, it's safe to reapply as often as needed.

Can I spray it on clothing and gear?
Absolutely — spray it on skin, clothing, hats, outdoor pillows, patio furniture, tent flaps, and gear. Unlike DEET, it won't damage synthetic fabrics or plastics.

Will my pets be bothered by the lavender scent?
Most pets tolerate lavender well, and many find it calming. However, if you have cats, avoid spraying directly on them, as cats can be more sensitive to essential oils. Spraying around them or on your own clothing is perfectly safe.

What's the difference between the Lavender and Cedar Fly Away sprays?
Both are 100% natural and DEET-free. Lavender offers a calming, floral scent and uses citronella for strong mosquito protection. Cedar offers a grounding, woodsy scent and is especially effective against ticks. Many customers buy both for different activities.

Which size should I buy — 2oz or 4oz?
The 2oz is perfect for travel, hiking, purses, and on-the-go reapplication. The 4oz is our full size — best for home, camping, and frequent outdoor use. Many customers buy one of each.

Does it double as an aromatherapy spray?
Yes — many customers love that this spray works double-duty. The combination of lavender hydrosol and Bulgarian lavender essential oil delivers calming, stress-relieving aromatherapy benefits while repelling bugs. Perfect for mid-hike resets or stressful outdoor moments.

I can’t even fill out my responses…. Both bottles were damaged and NO spray in either bottle. The package was torn and had holes punched in the mailing envelope…. So disappointing.

I am pregnant and wanted something safe to use. I went to st. Maarten where I ALWAYS leave with my entire legs covered in bug bites. I forgot the first night to put it on and got quite a few bites but I didn’t get a single new one after that using the spray. Smells very good also.

It works okay I was still getting bit while wearing it, but definitely not as much. I’d say it repels about 50-70% of mosquitoes. It also took longer than usual to arrive.

This was a life saver! My husband and I went hiking and I’m so thankful I took this along. Bugs immediately stopped flying into my face and stopped landing on my exposed arms & legs. I did re-spray a few times but I’d rather do that than be attacked by bugs. I enjoyed this spray so much I also purchased the cedarwood scented bug spray too!

I wasn’t expecting much having tried so many mosquito repellents. My bites would swell and I was a buffet for bugs. However, Fly away really works and so far those little flying vampires have left me alone. Great, and will purchase again in the future.
