Our Story

 

   

Bug Bam Products LLC is the official global distributor of the Bug Bam® range of plant-based mosquito repellents.

Our mission is straightforward and enduring: create premium, family-friendly protection that is effective, responsible, and thoughtfully made.

Founded in 1997 by Australian entrepreneur Joseph Symond, Bug Bam introduced the world’s first natural mosquito-repelling wristband. What began as a simple idea has grown into an internationally recognized brand trusted by families, travelers, outdoor enthusiasts, and pet owners seeking a cleaner alternative to traditional sprays.

Bug Bam products are formulated using EPA 25(b) exempt active ingredients and have undergone efficacy testing to evaluate performance against common mosquito species and other flying, biting insects. The focus has always been the same, reliable protection without unnecessary compromise.

From day one, the philosophy has been clear. Protection should not come at the expense of health, safety, or environmental responsibility. That belief continues to guide product development, manufacturing standards, and community engagement.

Today, Bug Bam expands through strong retail partnerships, continuous innovation, and a shared commitment to helping people spend more time outdoors with confidence.

The objective is simple. Make life more comfortable. Make protection easier. Improve the experience of being outside, one Bug Bam at a time.
