Scent away soap from hunters specialties. Check your walmart around ghe hunting stuff they just put out.

I have a bad allergic reaction to deet... I have tried just about everything non deet, nothing in my opinion works better than a thermacell

To get smells off your hands use stainless steel, they make a stainless steel bar that looks like a bar of soap and it floats.........works for all kinds of natural and chemical smells...
If you have a stainless steel sink in your kitchen the next time you cut up a onion or garlic rub your hands on the sink..........

For those that can't use deet, or don't want the odor of commercial sprays, this works. Hard to beat the price too.
I've used it for years for skeeters, red bugs and ticks. Beauty Bushes grow wild almost everywhere.
Here is a video of an easy way to make it.
