Note: NOT to be ingested or sprayed near face, mouth, eyes, nose or ears. The purpose of this product is to rid your area of bugs. If you are interested in a bug repellent, please look at our product: Bugs Away.

Health Ranger Select Bug Defender is a bug spray specially formulated to protect your home from pesky insects while being safe to use around pets, kids and adults. Its key ingredient is cedar oil, a fragrant and pet-friendly oil sourced from Texas cedar, which has natural insect-repelling properties. 
 
Our all-natural, pet-friendly formula takes out insects at all stages of life, from eggs to adults. It can also keep away virtually all kinds of pesky insects, such as mosquitoes, ticks, fleas, bed bugs and cockroaches. 
 
Health Ranger Select Bug Defender is non-China, DEET-free and extensively lab tested for glyphosate, heavy metals and microbiology. Our pet-friendly formula safely kills pesky insects without harming you, your loved ones or your pets.  
 
NOTE: Health Ranger Select Bug Defender is NOT to be ingested or sprayed on the skin. NOT for aquatic use and NOT for use on plants. Also, do NOT dilute.

Avoid these dangerous bugs with Health Ranger Select Bug Defender** 
 
Most insects are active in the summer, and some of them can spread pathogens that cause potentially deadly diseases. Here are some common illness-causing bugs to watch out for: 
 
Mosquitoes – Yellow fever, dengue fever and Zika fever are all viral diseases transmitted by Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. There are over 3,000 different species of mosquitoes in the world, 176 of which can be found in North America. 
 
Ticks – Lyme disease, the most common vector-transmitted disease in the U.S., is caused by a bacterium carried by deer ticks. The majority of human Lyme disease cases occur in the summer months when people spend more time outdoors. 
 
Lice – Lice are tiny, wingless insects that feed on human blood. Body lice, which live and reproduce in clothing and bedding, can carry and spread bacterial diseases, such as typhus, relapsing fever and trench fever. 
 
Fleas – Fleas aren't just a problem for dogs and cats. They can also carry and potentially transmit a host of diseases, such as typhus, plague and tularemia, through their bites. 
 
Bed bugs – Bed bugs are tiny, parasitic insects commonly found on beds or mattresses. Bed bugs are not known to spread disease, but their bites may cause painful swelling and intense itching in people allergic to them. 
 
Cockroaches – Cockroaches will eat just about anything, from rotten food to human feces. As such, they play a huge role in spreading some diseases, especially intestinal ones like dysentery and cholera. 
 
When used as directed, Health Ranger Select Bug Defender can effectively keep away these pesky invaders. 

Health Ranger Select Bug Defender is made with all-natural, non-toxic ingredients** 
 
Most commercial bug sprays contain toxic ingredients and synthetic chemicals that are harmful to your health. For example, DEET (N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide), an active ingredient commonly found in commercial bug sprays, can cause breathing difficulties, rashes and seizures in both humans and animals when inhaled, ingested or absorbed through the skin. 
 
Health Ranger Select Bug Defender contains absolutely no harmful ingredients like DEET. It is safe to use around kids and pets because it contains only all-natural, non-toxic ingredients like cedar oil. Derived from Texas cedar, a tree with natural insect-repelling properties, cedar oil can dehydrate and disorient insects thanks to a naturally occurring alcohol called cedrol. 
 
Cedar oil can also attack their respiratory system and dissolve their exoskeleton, causing them to dry out. Cedar oil is effective against various insects at all stages of life, from eggs to adults. To use Health Ranger Select Bug Defender, lightly spray it on areas that are prone to bugs, such as window frames, doorways and carpets. Apply on a weekly basis or as needed.

Why choose Health Ranger Select Bug Defender?** 
 
  • It is 100% natural – Health Ranger Select Bug Defender contains no DEET or other synthetic chemicals. It is also thoroughly lab tested for glyphosate, heavy metals and microbiology. 
  • It is formulated using clean, natural ingredients – Health Ranger Select Bug Defender contains only all-natural and non-toxic ingredients like cedar oil, which dehydrates and disorients insects.

Safe and non-toxic flea/tick prevention

I used this on my dog to kill fleas crawling on his coat, and it killed them shortly after. I would not recommend you use to effectively kill bigger insects like spiders and worms. This is only for the smaller, invasive pests that take over a home.

AMAZING

We have always had issues with carpenter ants in our home. During the warm months they are around constantly no matter what I’ve tried to get rid of them. I refuse to use toxic measures and upon discovering this product, I figured it was worth a try. It took literally only one time spraying this at my entryways and I haven’t seen an ant since! Plus, it smells amazing, but I like the smell of cedar wood.

Fast working!

I tried this out on an ant hill I encountered while gardening. The results were amazing. If it works like this in the garden, imagine what it can do in the house.

Excellant

I should have reviewed this product the last time I purchased it. It is by far the best natural product I have used for insect control. It drives them out and keeps them out! Now if you have something natural for moles and voles that works, 911 me on it please!

We’re glad to hear you’ve had such a positive experience with it for your insect-control needs! We also appreciate the suggestion for a natural option for moles and voles. Thank you for sharing your feedback and for coming back to leave a review!

I spray it around my home and backyard and there is a bug free environment. Hiking is a must and I noticed the difference around my patio. Great nontoxic way to keep the annoying bugs out.

Bug Defender

LOVE this stuff - one can actually watch insects/bugs approach the entrance and then turn around and leave! The cedarwood smell really helps living in the woods feel more inviting; the less spiders are an actual plus - LOL! Thanks, Health Ranger.

My indoor bug spray

I've used Health Ranger's Bug Defender for years as an indoor insect repellent. With just two simple ingredients, it helps drive away spiders and bugs inside my home. The cedarwood oil smells great in the house. I like to spray a tiny amount on a microfiber mop and sweep baseboards. Just a fabulous product.

Thank you for sharing such a creative and thoughtful review! We're delighted to hear this product has been a trusted part of your home for years and that you've found a routine that works well for you.

This is really great!

I've had mosquitoes all summer due to the neighbor thinking a half full green pool is cool. I'm in Phoenix where I don't think I saw a mosquito for the first 4-5 years I lived here! Coming from the Northeast, the was a major perk. I used this on my patio that runs the entire length of the backyard and I was amazed how well it works.

I have a pool so I sprayed the perimeter, the lounge chairs, and umbrella and we're pretty good out there too!

The only drawback, the flies could care less about it but my intent was the mosquitoes and numerous flying annoyances!

Big smiles over here! Appreciate you taking the time to share this!

Truly "safe and effective"

Love that I can use on kitchen counter near food prep and around/in bed! In tropics tiny ants can come down walls out of nowhere. Even onto our face while we slept. Borax method WAY too tedious, took me hours and days of repetition to put on walls, which works only on clear defined ant paths but not the random scout ants here there everywhere. This spray is a lifesaver before getting pros in to locate sources of entry, which could take weeks.

We’re glad to hear this product has been helpful for you! Thank you for sharing your experience and feedback.

the best for inside the house

I've used Bug Defender for years, both inside and outside my residence. I have a small dog and want to avoid using anything harsh for his sake and mine. I feel good about using Bug Defender -- and it really works!

It works!

I’m a huge indoor bug phobe and have to tell you that this amazing potion works! I’m naturally a very tidy person and keep my house free from clutter and regularly vacuum and dust, but for those inevitable basement, kitchen, and bathroom insects, Bug Defender as much as eradicates any sightings. I spray floor perimeters once every couple of months and that does the trick. Gives me peace of mind that it’s non-toxic and I do like the fresh cedar scent. Highly recommend!

Wonderful feedback!

Infested with little flies

I have an infestation of fruit flies, a smaller fly and a larger fly. They love to get into my cat's food, fly in my face and crawl everywhere. It has been very annoying. This spray kills them on contact and reduces the number I see. It is not enough by itself. I have to keep all food away from them. But it is a big help.

Thank you for the feedback!

High Quality Product

Living in Florida, I have to keep this on hand 9 months of the year. Every night before going to bed, I spray the laundry room, bathrooms, and kitchen (in the cabinets under the sink) with it. It keeps nasty Florida critters (including roaches) away. I live in a condo so have to use some kind of pest control. I've purchased other cedar oil sprays and none of them came anywhere near the quality of this product. None of them lasted anywhere near as long, either. This is just an all around life saver and it's something that I will always need and use. I also like that it is non-toxic and I don't have to worry about my little dog sniffing around on the floor. Thank you, Mike!
