Although mosquitoes are dangerous, repellents are recognized as a safe, and effective way to protect oneself. That does not mean that all repellents are made the same, however! If you are searching for reliable protection, you should only use EPA registered and approved products. Products marked as "natural" and "organic" typically have not been evaluated by the EPA and are usually ineffective against mosquitoes. We've compiled a list of products that do and don't work so you can make an informed purchase when it comes to mosquito repellent.

Your home should be a place where you always feel safe, but unfortunately, pest infestations can completely take away that feeling of security. They’re unsightly and shocking, and should be left to pest control services to remove, but the biggest concern you might not immediately think of is what they mean for your health.
