Buguard™ is a plant-based insect repellent applied directly to outdoor furniture. When furniture is used, Touch Active™ activates and releases a long-lasting repellent with a pleasant scent. Safe for the family, pets, and environment! Buguard uses essential oils as an alternative to DEET-based insect repellents that are sticky and unpleasant-smelling synthetic chemicals applied to the skin.
A powerful blend of essential oils with strong effectiveness against many types of pesky biters.
Buguard uses Touch Active Technology™ which holds a blend of essential oils in thousands of very small containers called micro-containers. Micro-containers rupture from touch or friction which releases the essential oils and pleasant-smelling scent to repel insects. The micro-containers reduce the essential oils from evaporating and help control the release rate.
Buguard contains a powerful blend of Lemongrass, Citronella, Cedarwood, Rosemary, Geranium, and Thyme extract that is strongly effective against a variety of bugs. Buguard™ is effective against pesky bugs such as mosquitos, ticks, ants, flies, fleas, and more.
The main ingredients are natural by using essential oils. Buguard is DEET-free, biodegradable, and has an extremely low environmental impact. The essential oils are sustainable and created by environmentally responsible processes and manufacturing controls. Using nature's solution to pesky biters.
Buguard contains a blend of essential oils which come in three formulas with one dominant essential oil for seasonal effectiveness. The three formulas are Nature's Spring (Lemongrass), Nature's Summer (Citronella), and Nature's Fall (Cedarwood). Presented in a 16-ounce cello spray bottle.

What are essential oils?
Essential oils are oils of the plant from which they were extracted (such as citronella essential oil.) The oils capture the plant's scent and flavor, or "essence." Unique aromatic compounds give each essential oil its characteristic essence.
Are essential oils safe?
Yes. Essential oils are regarded as safe and free of adverse side-effects if used properly. The essential oils used in Buguard™ have an extremely high purity level. Typically, these essential oils do not cause allergic reactions, but if any allergic reaction occurs discontinue use immediately.
What essential oils are in Buguard?
Buguard™ is an aqueous mixture containing essential oils in micro-containers. Buguard™ uses a unique blend of six essential oils to create three seasonal repellents: Lemongrass, Citronella, Cedarwood, Rosemary, Geranium, and Thyme.
Which essential oils repel insects?
The microencapsulated essential oils used in Buguard™ are noted in published research to have effective insect repellent properties. As an example, citronella is used extensively in candles, torch oil, bracelets, and other insect repellent items.
How do I apply Buguard™?
Shake the container before use. To apply, spray Buguard™ directly onto outdoor furniture, decks, or other items in the outdoor living space.
How much Buguard™ do I need to use?
Apply Buguard™ as needed to help repel insects such as mosquitos. Insect repellency is dependent on many complex factors such as insect density.
How long does Buguard™ last long?
Our testing has shown it can last multiple months. Results may vary based on various elements such as environmental conditions.
How does Buguard™ last so long?
Buguard™ solution includes very small, inert containers (micro-containers), that have droplets of essential oil inside. These micro-containers are made through a process called microencapsulation. The micro-container ruptures from touch (Touch Active Technology™) or friction which releases the essential oil blend. Micro-containers reduce the evaporation of essential oils and control the release rate, thus extending the useful life of essential oil applied to furniture and outdoor living areas.
Can I apply Buguard™ to my outdoor plants and living space?
Yes. Buguard™ can be sprayed directly onto your furniture, plants, decks, and other items in outdoor living spaces.
What type of insects does Buguard™ repel?
Buguard™ uses unique blends of six essential oils. Geranium for mosquitos. Lemongrass for chiggers, fleas, flies, fruit flies, ticks, no-see-ums, and mosquitos. Citronella for fleas, mosquitos, gnats, moths, and ticks. Cedarwood for mosquitos, flies, silverfish, ants, fleas, mites, ticks, and lice. Thyme for ants, armyworms, aphids, moths, fleas, grasshoppers, ground beetles, and mosquitos. And lastly, Rosemary for moths, fruit flies, and mosquitos. Buguard™ is available in three unique blends for spring (Lemongrass dominant), summer (Citronella dominant), and fall (Cedarwood dominant). This allows a selection of the fragrance based on preference and what works best in different environments.
