Skitopel® is a brand just as unique as its' name. Skitopel (pronounced Skeetopel) is 100% all-natural insect repellent sprays and candles. All of our products are deet free and chemical free. We grow and harvest the herbs in the products. Our unique formula incorporates the entire herb into each product. By incorporating the entire herb into each product, it makes each stronger and more effective at repelling a wide variety of bugs. 

We are a certified woman-owned business and a member of UL Wercsmart where our products are certified. We have quickly expanded in a few short years from being in only a couple dozen stores in Illinois to currently being in over 300 stores in Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia, Wisconsin, and Alabama.

We grow a wide variety of herbs including peppermint, spearmint, lemon balm, and lavender just to name a few. Each year we expand our fields as well as growing herbs indoors during the winter months to keep up with demand and continue to grow.

Consumers have 5 big concerns when it comes to repellents: effectiveness; safety; feel; scent; and affordability.

We have all 5 of these concerns covered which is why we have grown so quickly.

Our sprays have been scientifically tested and proven to be 100% repellent even at 2+ hours. Even better is the fact that they not only repel mosquitos but also gnats (all types), biting flies, sweat bees, chiggers, ticks and more. No more having to buy a separate repellent for different bugs.

All of our products are safe for the entire family. None of our products contain deet or chemicals. The sprays are soft and gentle for the entire family including babies/toddlers and anyone with sensitive skin such as eczema and/or dermatitis. No more greasy or sticky feeling. Each spray has a soft, pleasant scent wherein after a few minutes the consumer doesn't even realize they are wearing bug spray at all. Lastly all of our products are priced to fit into everyone's budget.

The candles can be used both indoors and outdoors. They simply consist of soy wax, soy wicks, herbs, and some coloring. Indoors the herbs in each one provide a refreshing, soothing atmosphere for the entire home. Outdoors they keep the entire sitting area bug free. With long burn times these candles provide much needed outdoor enjoyment for everyone.

These candles bring a much-needed variety to the market that currently caters to just citronella scented candles.
