Don’t let bugs ruin your summer fun!





It’s almost that time of year again… When families plan fun-filled outdoor adventures like going to the cottage, camping, hiking, picnicking, canoeing, or horseback riding through the woods. These activities are great for families to bond and create long-lasting memories. Unfortunately, these special moments can be spoiled when pesky mosquitoes and deer ticks invade your fun filled outdoor activities.
Fortunately, it’s never been easier to enjoy an outdoor family adventure and still have dependable protection from mosquitoes and deer ticks thanks to Avon’s latest innovation from Skin So Soft. It’s time to take back the great outdoors with Avon’s Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus Icaridin.
Not only does it provide strong and dependable repellency against mosquitoes and deer ticks, but it’s also DEET-FREE and features a fresh gentle breeze scent. Bug Guard Plus Icaridin repels mosquitoes for 5 hours and deer ticks for 7 hours!
Looking for even more great ways to keep pests at bay? Try these tips:
- Wear light-coloured, loose clothes and avoid scented products when outdoors, especially from dusk to dawn, which is peak feeding time for mosquitoes.
- Remove areas of standing water near your house as these can be breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
- Clean Gutters: Gutters clogged with debris allow stagnant water to form perfect landing zones for mosquito eggs. 
- Wear closed shoes and a hat to avoid deer ticks. Tuck pants into socks.
- Inspect your clothing and body after exploring wooded or grassy areas.
