Natural Insect Repellent Ring

The BioPower People Shield™ is a non-toxic insect repellent system that keeps mosquitos, flies, ticks, and other insects away naturally — without chemical pesticides. Using a citronella spray you apply before going outside together with a ring you wear on your finger, the People Shield pairs the repellent power of citronella with an added level of bioresonance frequencies that disturb insects so they naturally want to stay away.

This page is for the People Shield ring only — to reorder the ring annually, to order it on the annual subscription plan, or to replace one that's been lost or damaged. Each ring lasts one year after it's been opened and used.

The ring and the spray work together, forming a system that delivers enhanced effectiveness over a botanical spray alone. The ring is worn 24/7 and creates a low-level energy field around you carrying the active frequencies. The spray adds the insect-repelling citronella before you go outdoors and strengthens the frequencies to a level where insects are bothered enough to stay away — more so than with the spray alone.

What you get: The unisex ring is silver, waterproof, durable, and made of nickel-free surgical stainless steel. When you order from this page you receive only the ring, not the spray. To order the complete BioPower People Shield System that includes both the ring and the spray, please go here.

The citronella spray works from the first application, while the added bioresonance effect builds over a 3 to 4 week activation period as the ring's frequencies power up. During that time you'll notice a gradually increasing improvement over the spray alone. The ring works for one full year once opened and used.

Using the Ring

• Wear the ring on any finger 24/7, including while sleeping. It must be worn consistently, day and night, through your entire insect season to be effective.
• Allow 3 to 4 weeks for the ring to reach full effectiveness. Be especially sure to keep it on throughout this activation period.
• Always use the ring together with the companion People Shield Spray. The ring is not designed to work without the spray.
• The ring is completely waterproof and can be worn while bathing and swimming.
• The ring is safe for all ages and is made of surgical-grade, nickel-free stainless steel.
• Subscribe & save. Sign up for auto-delivery on the spray, the ring, or both to save 20% and never run out — pause, reschedule, or cancel anytime.

Pro tip: The spray is the part that works from the first application; the ring's bioresonance effect builds over the first 3 to 4 weeks. Get the ring on early in the season so it's at full strength when you need it most.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the People Shield system work?

The anchor of the system is the citronella spray you apply before going outdoors. Citronella is a well-known, plant-derived insect repellent with a long history of documented use — not a synthetic chemical like DEET. What makes the system special is that both the spray and the ring carry our proprietary insect-repelling frequencies, which disturb the nervous systems of insects so they naturally stay away.

It's the same bioresonance frequency technology behind our Pet Shield system, with over a million units sold worldwide over the past two decades to keep fleas and ticks away from dogs and cats. Bioresonance is an energy frequency-based healthcare approach used in Europe rooted in the same principles as long-established holistic practices like acupuncture and homeopathy.

Q: Can I use just the ring or just the spray?

The spray can be used on its own, but the People Shield is designed as a two-part system meant to be used with both. The ring emits low-level frequencies through your body's energy field, but these aren't powerful enough on their own to repel insects outdoors. The ring works to boost the spray's repellency to a higher level than the spray by itself — and that relies on wearing the ring 24/7.

Q: Does the ring need recharging or batteries?

No. The ring uses no batteries and never needs recharging. It works for one full year, so you simply replace it at the start of each insect season based on where you live.

Q: Do I need to wear the ring in the winter?

Once insect season is over in your area, there's no need to wear the ring. You will need a new one for the next season, though, assuming a year has passed — each ring works for one year once it's been opened and used.

Q: Can the ring be shared between two people?

Because the ring must be worn 24/7 to work, it can't be shared. The spray, however, can be used by multiple people — as long as each person has their own ring.

Q: What is the activation period for the ring?

The ring takes 3 to 4 weeks for its frequencies to reach full power. During that time the spray is already working, but by the end of the fourth week you should notice a meaningful reduction in insects bothering you compared to using the spray alone. Keep in mind the People Shield can't be 100% effective in every situation — it's designed to be effective in most everyday environments.

Q: What happens if I can't wear the ring for a while?

Removing the ring for short periods — bathing, an MRI, and so on — won't affect its effectiveness. Otherwise it should be worn all the time, including while sleeping. If you have to go without it for an extended stretch, you can simply set it aside and start wearing it again later, which will mean going through the 3 to 4 week activation period again to return to full strength. If more than a year has passed since the ring was first worn, you'll need a new one.

Q: What if I'm still bothered by insects occasionally?

The People Shield is designed to be effective in most everyday environments, but there are times and places where insects are so prevalent that nothing is 100% effective. It isn't magic, so in more extreme conditions it may not keep every insect away. The ability to repel pests depends on many factors — the location, the time of year, the type of insect, even your own body. The People Shield will always be helping, but like any pest-repellent approach it has its limits.
