Default Badger Anti-Bug Balm

I purchased the Badger Anti-Bug Balm in a roll-on after years of using Deet
or Cutters repellent
This will be the first time using a Badger product after reading positive
reviews.
Also have a mosquito head net as a back-up.
Any users of the Badger Anti-Bug Balm?

Hate to be a wet blanket, but looking at the ingredients, I would say
this stuff won't be too effective. I have only found two products that
work in "bug country"........100% DEET and Cutters Advanced. I am
currently using the Cutters, mainly because it purports to have fewer
side effects, and is not harmful to waders and fly lines. I find it as
effective as DEET against mosquitos, and slightly less effective
against blackflies and deer flies.
