But it's a hell of a lot safer than DEET.

When high ocean waves leave salt water puddles on a beach the following day there will be a major hatch of jejenes.
Small insects that tickle but don't bite are referred to as "Bobos".
An empty Windex bottle refilled with water + a couple teaspoons of bleach can be sprayed over top a campsite and for a few days this will measureably reduce jejene numbers.
California banned the sale of Pennyroyal oil because women were chug-a-lugging it trying to cause an abortion. Stupid stupid. Drink an excess amount of water and it will prove fatal. Arguments can be made for excess oxygen, protein, vitamins, using a crosswalk without looking, sticking your tongue on a sub-zero door handle. Urinating on an electric fence. The list of "Danger Will Robinson" is awesome (and hilarious).
