7 Best Bug and Mosquito Repellents, Tested by Experts
Mosquitoes are an unavoidable part of spending time outdoors, whether you're grilling in the backyard, camping in the woods or just working through the summer to-do list. Some years are worse than others, but the annoyance and the risk never really goes away. That’s why the Good Housekeeping Institute tests mosquito repellents year-round, focusing on what actually works in the field and not just what’s trending.
For this updated guide to mosquito repellents and bug sprays, we combined results from our Lab with field-tested feedback from entomologists and outdoor pros. That includes insight from Megan E. Meuti, Ph.D., an entomologist at Ohio State University, who helped us evaluate ingredient effectiveness and usage safety. The products we’ve included here range from new formulas with plant-based actives to proven DEET-based sprays that continue to perform reliably. Whether you're heading out for a hike and need bug repellent for your skin or just want to keep your patio clear of mosquitos for a quiet dinner, there’s an option here that fits.
