Bug Bites Ruin Holidays. This Fixes That.

You’ve booked the flights.
Packed the swimmers. Found the perfect villa, walking distance to the beach and maybe even a breakfast bar.
Just image the sun on your shoulders, drink in hand, warm breeze on your face.
The stress is melting away — and then scratch. Another one. And another.
You look down: your legs are getting peppered by mozzies — again.
But by day two, you’re covered in bites. You’re lying in bed, wide awake, scratching your ankles like a maniac. 
That dreamy escape? Suddenly doesn’t feel so dreamy.
It’s a simple truth: bug bites ruin holidays.
And if you’re the kind of person mozzies love, it doesn’t take much — one sunset dinner, one rainforest walk, one swim before breakfast without reapplying — and you’re done. It’s itch city.
 

Why Most Repellents Don’t Help (and Sometimes Make Things Worse)


We get it.
You’ve tried the hardcore stuff. 
The ones that smell like window cleaner and sting your skin. 
Maybe they work, but your kids hate them — or they’re not even safe for kids under 12 months.
Then you’ve tried the “gentle” ones. Plant-based sprays that smell nice but fade fast. Within 30 minutes, mozzies are back for round two — because water-based sprays evaporate, rub off, or get sweated away. 
Your kids wipe their face and poof — protection, gone.
And don’t get us started on the ones that say “natural” but aren’t tested or approved.
 

So What’s the Fix?


It’s not another gimmick. It’s not a citronella candle. It’s not “just cover up and hope for the best.”
It’s finding a repellent that actually works, feels good on skin, and won’t sting or irritate your little one. 
One that’s been tested in the tropics. Clinically proven. Designed with real families in mind.
 
Good Riddance is built for exactly this moment — for the parents holding the repellent bottle and thinking, “I just want to stop the bites without causing a meltdown.”
  • It’s cream-based — so it sticks to the skin and stays there, even when your kids are running, sweating, or swimming.
  • It’s APVMA registered — which means it’s not just “natural,” it’s clinically proven to protect against mozzies, midges, and sandflies.
  • It’s suitable from 3 months old — so you’re not left guessing what’s safe and what’s not.
  • And when bites do happen? Our Rescue Balm soothes itching fast, without any nasties.
