Product Information

Finally, wondering how to help mosquito bites heal (after all, there’ll always be a handful of determined ones that get through)? In the past, we’ve encountered sprays that are so sticky, mozzies have actually stuck to our arm, which we presume made their blood-sucking work significantly easier. Roll-on with 50% DEET and plant extracts for controlled application of long-lasting maximum protection. Our Kids Slap-it band is a hassle free, fun way to protect your kids from bites so that you can enjoy more of the outside world without compromise.

Hard to prove, but the lack of bites after a full day in an area where mozzies were known to lurk meant we had full faith in this claim. A fresh launch, Lifesystems replaced its 95 per cent DEET Expedition 100 with this potentially life-saving formula. Most relevant species for tropical destinations such as the Aedes and Anopheles mosquitoes which can carry Yellow Fever, Zika, Malaria, Dengue and Chikungunya. N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide (DEET (50%) 485 g/kg) CAS 134-62-3, (2E)-3,7-dimethyl-2,6-octadien-1-ol (geraniol (1%) 9. It’s DEET-free and contains neem, a natural repellent, which shouldn’t irritate even the most sensitive skin.Spray into your hands first before patting onto your face, taking care to avoid your eyes and mouth. The active ingredient in Mosi-Guard Natural is Citriodiol, a plant-based DEET equivalent which comes doubly armoured with lemon and eucalyptus. It’s also a great family-friendly option (it can be used on babies aged two months and older), thanks largely to the use of icaridin as an alternative to DEET.

One problem with aerosol and pump-spray repellents is the difficulty in controlling the spray – trust us, your fellow travellers certainly don’t want a faceful of repellent, especially ones containing DEET. This is an aerosol version of the pump bottle product we mentioned earlier, and although we loved the benefits of a pump (including the reduced risk of leaks), the wider distribution area meant this spray enabled us to cover much larger areas (and multiple people) in less time. But the Jungle Formula maximum pump spray still got the gold star, simply because it ticked all the boxes: it was easy to apply, kept mosquitos at bay and didn’t irritate our (extremely sensitive) skin.

Rather than spraying yourself silly to the chagrin of your poor sinuses, bathing in this liquid castile magic soap or lathering up in the shower is a fantastic, low maintenance means of keeping the insects away. Patches are a great option if you're travelling around a lot or would like something quick and easy to keep you protected. Another great repellent for anyone keen to take a chemical-free approach, this plant-based spray (citriodiol, which is derived from lemon eucalyptus essential oil, is the main ingredient) is a brilliant option for all the family. The aerosol dispenser was surprisingly powerful and enabled us to cover large areas in a matter of seconds. Most products use their own systems, but should be clear on whether they are 'tropical strength' or not.
