i started using nantucket spider the spring of last year when our range was infested with skeeters and ticks, and have been Very pleased with the results.  it's also deet free.

How does the Nantucket stuff smell?
The Cedarcide has a pretty strong cedar smell.

Lookin' at the jug of Cedarcide it says it contains......

Cedar Oil,..... 20%
Hydrated Silica..... 80%

I have no idea what "hydrated silica" is, but I guess it's non-toxic.

When I first saw that I thought, "wet sand"
So I had to look it up.
Some pretty interesting stuff, IMHO

Hydrated silica is a form of silicon dioxide, which has a variable amount of water in the formula. When dissolved in water it is usually known as silicic acid. It is found in nature, as opal (which has been mined as a gemstone for centuries), and in the cell walls of diatoms. It is also manufactured for use in toothpaste. Once dehydrated the gel is used as a desiccant known as silica gel. It is also used in various paints and varnishes and in the production of beer.

When used in both Opals, and Beer, how could a fella go wrong.
Heck, I could even brush my tooth with that stuff.
