Para'kito's [mosquito repellent arm band](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charm-collection) is a wearable insect deterrent that is completely free of deet -- a harsh chemical agent that is found in many competing products on the market.

Made with [natural essential oils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/natural-insect-repellents), this waterproof product boasts an adjustable design and is safe for users of all ages. Featuring a stylish camo print, the wearable insect repellent is ideal for on-the-go use and is a discreet way to keep mosquitos away while camping, barbecuing or hiking.

While competing products like [electric mosquito repellents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mosqitter-mini) and spray bottle solutions can feature a harsh scent and an abundance of heavy-duty chemicals, this naturally derived product is a safer alternative. The arm bands' stylish and portable design is also functional for those prone to common skin rashes or reactions.
