FREEHOLD, N.J., June 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Independence Day weekend is the kick-off to summer, and millions of Americans will be celebrating the holiday with family and friends. Nearly 50 percent of Americans are more concerned about mosquitoes and ticks this season than ever before, based on a survey conducted by EcoBuggy®.

More than 60 percent of survey respondents said mosquitoes are what they dislike most about summer followed by mowing the lawn at 31 percent and getting tan lines at 24 percent.

Not only are mosquitoes disliked, they are also the most feared bug, according to 45 percent of survey respondents, followed by flies at 17 percent, wasps at 14 percent and bumble bees at 14 percent.

According to the survey, 90 percent of consumers who are seeking protection from mosquitoes are most concerned with the finding an all-natural, long-lasting, plant-based repellent.
