Q: Can I wear this if pets are around? Looks like a similar question was asked last year, but the "answer" didn't answer the actual question. I understand that this is not to be used ON pets, that is not the question. Thanks!

I really like this bc it doesn’t have a strong gross smell yet it is still very effective
Effective but stings badly upon application?
4 out of 5 stars
Mamamia654 - 9 months ago
I really do think this is one of the best mosquito sprays I’ve ever used. But I can’t fathom or defend why it STINGS so bad for the first few seconds after application???? My toddler and I both feel it and it fades away after a few seconds. I don’t mind since it is so effective but obviously causing distress to my small child upon application every single time makes it completely ineffective for using on her. I’m surprised I didn’t see this in any other reviews? I also got my two bottles on clearance so I’m wondering if this batch was bad and they clearanced them out but seems like a bad Move….

Love it! Amazing performance, light scent and feels light on skin. My family and I have been battling mosquitoes all summer. Last night we tried Stem for the first time and it was amazing! No one was bitten! I had 4 other types of big sprays, some with deet and some without, I've thrown them all away.

Love this. It does work. No 100 percent but definitely better than most. I like the spray but it does go quick. It’s a bit pricey here. I can get it at H-E-B for 7.59 and at times they have 1.50 off coupons.
Doesnt protect against a thing

Orchidd - 1 year ago, Verified purchaser
This has zero effect when used against mosquitoes and I’d hate to see how effective this would be when trying to prevent ticks. This doesn’t work at all, no amount of prevention whatsoever. We live in the central valley and mosquitoes are rampant and this is not the thing for us. I don’t know how it works for anyone. Maybe we got a crappy batch but it literally was like spraying perfume on and nothing more. Buy at your own risk

Thanks for taking the time to review! I'm sorry STEM® Mosquito + Tick Repellent didn't repel for the 8 hours we would expect. I have gone ahead and let my team know about what happened, and we would like the chance to make this right.

This stuff is great! I was going on a camping trip and I was trying to find a bug spray that doesn't have a smell (I am sensitive to fragrance) and actually works. A lot of the fragrance free bug sprays don't have great reviews so I decided to get this one, still skeptical because the reviews were part of promotion. I can say this stuff is completely unscented and kept the bugs away in my 5 day camping trip. My friends who used other sprays came home with many bug bites and I came home with 0! I am very impressed!
Effective, but Greasy

Seems to work well in my backyard! It’s labeled as “non-greasy” but that doesn’t seem to be the case. At first I thought it just needed time to dry but even an hour later it was still shiny & slippery.

Use this on hikes. Seems to work. Only smells bad while spraying, but the scent immediately fades away. Does not feel sticky or irritating on skin.

We were attending an outdoor event in a wooded area where everyone was covered in ticks and mosquito bites. I bought STEM for the next day's activities for my children and I. I lightly sprayed it on exposed skin, clothes, and shoes. We had NO ticks on us or mosquito bites the entire day! I love that it is not sticky or greasy at all and no odor on your skin or clothes, both of which I can't stand of other sprays. You cannot tell that you have it on.
No bites today!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. My husband and I tried this product while we were working outdoors in the evening, when he usually gets several mosquito bites. This time, he only received one bite on his shoulder, where he had not sprayed the product because his shoulder was covered by a shirt. The spray is not greasy or sticky, but it does have a strong scent that we weren't too fond of. Overall, we liked this product and look forward to more bite-free evenings this year!
Good product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received product reimbursement in exchange for my honest review. This product works really well. Doesn't feel sticky or gross on your skin when you apply it. It doesn't have any odor so it doesn't smell like anything. This is a one stop shop spray for both mosquito and tick. Love that it's made in Germany. I didn't have bugs bother me while I was outside! Great protection for the coming summer months.
