Native Shield soothes itchy, irritated skin associated with poison ivy, poison oak, bug bites, hives, and other common skin reactions.

Native Shield is a synthetic-free, DEET-free botanical outdoor spray crafted from pure plants and minerals — without artificial fragrances, colors, emulsifiers, or hidden additives. Customers love that it smells fresh and pleasant during application, yet the scent fades quickly after use, even when applied generously from head to toe.

Mosquitoes, houseflies, chiggers, no-see-ums, horseflies, and other outdoor pests can quickly make time spent outdoors miserable. Native Shield changes that. Many families choose Native Shield as part of their outdoor routine because they are seeking a gentler alternative to conventional bug sprays.

Use it when mosquitoes, horseflies, houseflies, no-see-ums, chiggers, and other biting outdoor insects are the concern.

BEFORE OUTDOOR EXPOSURE:

Shake well, spray into your hands, and gently apply across exposed skin to activate the formula. Many customers use Native Shield as part of their outdoor routine before hiking, gardening, camping, and spending time in nature.

AFTER OUTDOOR EXPOSURE OR IRRITATION:

Choose Native Shield to help comfort itchy, irritated skin from bug bites, poison ivy, poison oak, dryness, redness, and other hive-like skin reactions. At Alywillow, we believe products should work in harmony with the body — not against it. Simply shake the bottle (as there are no synthetic emulsifiers and the ingredients need to be blended), spray into your hands, and gently apply over the affected area.

Disappearing Scent

At first, there is a crisp, fresh vinegar scent, but that disappears fast. After about 5 minutes, you can be covered from head to toe with Native Shield, but the scent will be gone.

Safe & Natural

A complex formula offering natural plant chemicals that repel mosquitoes. Native-Shield even soothes itchy skin issues. If you have specific skin concerns, let us know. We have many other items that can help bring relief.

Before or After the Bite

If applied after a mosquito bite, it relieves itching, pain, swelling, and scarring. If applied in advance, it creates a protective barrier against biting insects. This usually repels mosquitoes, horseflies, houseflies, and no-see-ums for a few hours. Reapply more often if you are sweating.

RUB IT ON to repel the bugs

Simply spraying onto your skin isn't enough. You must rub it on your skin to activate it.

What about Ticks & Spiders?

NATIVE-SHIELD by itself is not designed specifically to repel ticks or spiders. For added protection against ticks and spiders, add 20 drops of FORTIFY Plant Serum to one bottle of NATIVE-SHIELD, then shake well before use. FORTIFY helps deter both ticks and spiders. If you prefer a ready-made spray for the same two pests, choose DisinfectNOW, which is made from Fortify. It helps deter both ticks and spiders, among other things, and can be sprayed on the skin, face, hair, and clothing.

Dangers of standard bug sprays:

Did you know every breath you take pulls in tiny molecules from whatever is around, like the delicious steam curling off a simmering soup or that harsh chemical tang in the pesticide aisle (no thanks)?

This is different! Say goodbye to artificial emulsifiers, fragrances, and colors, and embrace the natural goodness that Alywillow has to offer. Pure plant power, zero synthetics—just spritz, breathe easy, and enjoy the outdoors - the Alywillow way!
