I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Is this made to spray clothing? You can spray clothing, but not so good for it. Better to spray you (it works for about 5 hrs of hot work, gardening, hiking etc), then wipe off or shower.

Does this spray have a strong odor of repellent and does it leave your skin feeling sticky? It smells when you first spray it but the odor does not last. My skin did not feel sticky. I used in Uganda and it worked great.

How long does the bottle last if used twice a day? I was gone for 2 weeks and used it about 2x per day everyday. I probably used about 3/4 of a bottle! I definitely used it pretty liberally too (I say that because I had bought 2- I used one mostly but occasionally had used the other bottle as well). Hope this helps!

Is it safe to use in combination with sunscreen? Yep! Always put on sunscreen first and then apply the deet second.
