        This really is too easy to be believable but trust me it is. My husband was suffering from bug bombardment while working on the car and this simple trick saved the day!

        This is not mandatory but I would wash or at least rinse face or exposed area with water or soap and water. Dry.

        Use one Bounty dryer sheet and wipe over all exposed areas.

      • 3

        Dispose of dryer sheet and you are done! Safe for even infants and children.

    Tips & Warnings

    • Keep a sealer baggie in diaper bags and car, etc. for summer outings.

    • Do not forget to apply sunscreen if outdoors.

    • Even though this is generally safe, I would perform a patch test before all over application.

    • Do not get in mouth or eyes.

    • See any package information for more detailed product ingredient information.
