![]() It even works in Alabama!! I can wear shorts again! This product has made my life infinitely better and less itchy!!! Plus to boot it's all natural so no gross lung choking chemicals!! Woo thank you for making a quality product that is phenomenal!! ~ GabrielleB, Native Alabamian They eventually see this lurking game as futile and fly away to feast on some poor soul who has yet to discover 'Skeeter Skidaddler. The devil creatures still hover around me but it's as if I'm wearing an impenetrable force field. Then that fateful day came when my eyes were opened to this magical substance that not only smells GREAT and dries quickly but it actually works. I eventually gave up because it was either smell like gross bug spray and get eaten alive or smell normal and get eaten alive. I can literally bathe in any bug repellent known to man and still somehow my legs look like a war zone. Thank you so, so much!!! ~ MaryM in Maine Everything about the product (the ingredients, the effectiveness, the fact that it's made in America-) makes me proud and thrilled to use it. I am so happy to have found a natural, effective product made by people who really care. Our contractor gave me a bottle of 'Skeeter Skidaddler and to my complete amazement, it worked!! During my 2 hours walking through the woods on the property I did not get bit at all! I kept waiting to wake up from my dream! I cannot recommend this product enough! I've been telling everyone about it. Although we are so excited about our move, I have had a hard time walking the property without being swarmed by mosquitos. My family and I recently purchased a large wooded piece of land in Maine on which to build a home. That is all before the 'Skeeter Skidaddler. As someone who tries very hard to stay away from chemicals, I would end up not using any type of repellent and just dealing with the misery. I will easily get dozens of bites at a time and when I get bit the bites quickly swell to larger than a quarter in size. Maine: Like many of those who have written in, I too am a mosquito magnet. Thanks for a great product that I actually feel good about using! What a nice change. It's actually SO yummy, I've been so tempted to use it even when there are no mosquitos! My skin feels amazing after I apply, and I actually get compliments on how great I smell! Always an awkward moment when I have to admit that it's my mosquito repellent, not perfume!). I’ve used my original two bottles in Alaska for the past 2-3 seasons and LOVE it!īeginning of mosquito season here in Alaska and I"m desperate for a few more bottles! Have I mentioned that the mosquito is our State Bird? :) OK, just kidding on that part, but I DO love your product!!! Have shared with many. I'm a nut for patchouli and cedarwood essential oils!). Love to bring local things back to family as gifts so I bought a couple of bottles. The constant intercourse between the outposts soon made the term familiar to the Federal army also.Danielle of North Pole, Alaska (about 15 miles outside of Fairbanks) writes: "I discovered 'Skeeter Skidaddler while visiting my sister in Windham and shopping at the Maine Mall. For an older guess: used even yet by students of Yale College and elsewhere to designate their rooms, or a theatrical or other performance in a public hall, has its origin probably in a corruption of the French cabane, a hut, familiar to the troops that came from Louisiana, and constantly used in the Confederate camp for the simple huts, which they built with such alacrity and skill for their winter quarters. Either or both senses also might be mangled pronunciations of French char-à-banc, a bus-like wagon with many seats. It is applied alike to a room, a shop, or a hut, a tent, a cabin an engine house." Phrase the whole shebang first recorded 1869, but relation to the earlier use of the word is obscure. Bartlett's 1877 edition describes it as "A strange word that had its origin during the late civil war. Perhaps an alteration of shebeen (q.v.), but shebang in the sense "tavern," a seemingly necessary transitional sense, is not attested before 1878 and shebeen seems to have been not much used in the U.S. Civil War, but like other Civil War slang (such as skedaddle) of uncertain origin. 1862, "hut, shed, shelter," popularized among soldiers in the U.S.
