Keep the bugs away — naturally
Bug Bane, a safe black fly and mosquito repellant that really works, was a long time in the making,
but Mary Joan Mondello finally came up with the winning combination of essential oils and herbal
waters to keep bugs at bay. Used with Mary Joan’s all-natural No See-Urn-Soap, biting bugs will
stay away.
The insect repellent soap and spray are only two of the many natural remedies that
Mary Joan creates and markets through her business, Maine Coast Herbals.
A member of the American Naturopathic Medical Association, Mary Joan graduated from
Clayton College of Natural Health with a bachelor of science in natural health and a
doctor of naturopathy, but her education really began in her Portuguese grandmother’s
kitchen decades ago. “Her home remedies worked 1ike magic, and I was hooked,”
says Mary Joan of her grandmother’s early influence. “She and Paul’s Sicilian Papa, well
versed in herbal pharmacopoeia, were the guiding forces behind our business.”
Maine Coast Herbals is a small, family-owned, business, located in the coastal town of Milbridge.
The products are hand formulated primarily from the organically grown herbs that are planted and
harvested by the Mondellos. The product line includes herbal teas, soaps, deodorants, tinctures,
and facial and body creams, as well as herbal remedies for problem skin, arthritis and chronic pain,
and a specialty line for pets.
Here are the form results from

Thank you soooo much! Yes, I really do want 8- does that give me a price break? Just
kidding! I have lots of kids and we keep them in the cars and strollers too! I also am
ordering a couple for a few of my girlfriends to try on their kids.... it drives me nuts
watching them douse their kids in DEET at the baseball field etc! I will try one of the
No See Um soap too.... I trust you on that one and believe me with the size of our
gardens it is a lot of buggy hours of work! Thanks again and I will look for it soon!
Hi Mary, just wanted to say thanks for the order and the shipping on the soap. I love your products. I wanted to let you know that I have been using the no see um soap and between that and the bug spray, it really works. The other night I didn't have the spray on and I got some mosquito bites. I sprayed them with the bug spray when I came in and it relieved the itch. By the next day, they were almost gone. It seemed to neutralize them. Just wanted to let you know. Thanks again and the dog is happy. I've been spraying her and it does the trick. Have a good week, Mary
