The CDC recommends Picaridin as a safe and effective insect repellent for adults and children over 1-year.

Derived from the naturally occurring organic compound piperine — the alkaloid that gives black pepper its hot flavor — Picaridin is the first synthetic repellent to clear modern efficacy and safety tests. It is odorless, non-greasy, easy on the skin, does not damage plastic or clothing, and is not a neurotoxin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn the early stages of development, scientists modeled a variety of different three-dimensional molecules that would interfere with the olfactory receptors biting insects use to find food.
