Bugged by mosquitoes? Read this

MANILA, Philippines - Gandang Kalikasan, Inc. (GKI) through its brand Human Nature, introduces Human Nature Citronella Bug Spray, which is 100-percent natural and DEET-free, and gives double protection from pesky mosquitoes and harmful, toxic chemicals like DEET.

This bug spray was developed by the US Army for military use following their experience of jungle warfare in World War II. Ingredients include organic virgin coconut oil (VCO), known for its skin-healing, moisturizing, and anti-microbial benefits, and organic citronella oil, a well-known natural insect repellent. Organic lemongrass essential oil, together with rosemary and lavender essential oils, gives off a pleasant smell that’s good for you but bad for mozzies and bugs.

Whenever you use Human Nature DEET-free bug spray, you also help citronella farmers in Bicol, lemongrass farmers in Negros Oriental, and VCO farmers nationwide. In a quiet little town called Labo in Camarines Norte, there is a community that’s flourishing because of the abundance of citronella. Through a partnership with Human Nature and Philippine Federation for Environmental Concern (PFEC), many of the farmers’ lives have improved — farm lots have been expanded, extensions to homes have been added, and children are being sent to school.

Human Nature has partnered with Shopwise and selected Rustan’s Supermarkets to make the product available on a wider scale. A 50ml bottle costs only P84.75.
