    Lemon Eucalyptus Oil (OLE) serves the purpose. Its fragrance is gentler; kids will not reject it as with Citronella or DEET. Kids can also apply it by themselves in school or outdoors as it not harmful to them even with frequent application. Citronella and DEET are not recommended for children especially those under 3 years old.
