No idea, but it might be worth trying to trigger their notice by quoting them so that the system messages them that someone has done so.

Ehm....I'll find something and put it in this thread.

Sorry, @Sundowner, I'm not much help on this otherwise.

I don't think they are. Last I'd heard of them they were off touring Europe in a van.

Last time Woodstock was on here was Feb this year, Xylaria over a year ago.

Thanks Toddy, I'll keep trying as real alternatives aren't around
 
Having looked at their blog they've said they're not making it any more. Which is a shame because it's great stuff!
As they're living in their van, it's not feasible to run a cosmetics business.
That was in 2020 however, so who knows?
There's always Wilma's oils and their Insect repellent.
Much more expensive of course. I've not tried it, but I've heard good things.

I have been using Nordic Summer since running out of the Stupidly Simple stuff. It seems similar but with less citrus notes. It seems to keep feeble weak-willed English bugs at bay, but the one time I took it north of the border, the wind was keeping the wee biting blighters grounded so I can't comment on its effectiveness there.
