Any herbalist will tell you that many of our "weeds" can be our friends. Protecting yourself or your children doesn't have to mean using a product with a warning label.
Plantain, yarrow and comfrey are the chosen plants for this deet free herbal infusion.
Plantain is a commonly seen weed and being it has beneficial properties it is a perfect addition to this mix.
Yarrow has a long known history in folk medicine as well.
Another wonderful healer is comfrey, a large fuzzy garden herb. Rich in chlorophyll, minerals and mucilage the leaves are an ally.

Vinegar is the base for this spray for three reasons; bugs don't care for it, it makes for great herbal infusions, and it evaporates, therefore there is no need to worry about smelling like vinegar.
Herbal Vinegar Body Spray is ideal for people who are seeking an organic, herbal product but would rather avoid the concentration of essential oils. We're relying solely on the strength of the herbs themselves.
Comfrey and Yarrow may be on the "avoid" list during pregnancy therefore check with your physician. An alternative for pregnant women would be:
