(Tried to post this from home earlier, but it didn't take.) We have used Bite Blocker in northern Ontario. It is DEET-less but tends to be aromatic. It truly seems to repel mosquitoes, although (like DEET?)it has little apparent effect on flies. I have never done a controlled test to compare whether Bite Blocker needs to be applied more often than DEET, but it really is quite powerful, and I invite others to see for themselves. (I have no interest in this product other than as a consumer.)
