CHOOSING THE RIGHT MOSQUITO REPELLENT

Ask Yourself These Questions:

 
Question Mark

HOW LONG WILL YOU BE OUTSIDE?

 
Find a mosquito repellent labeled for the length of time you’ll be outdoors. Remember that length of protection for a personal insect repellent is tied to the percentage of its active ingredient. For example, the higher the percentage of DEET, the longer your protection will last.
 
Shorter Outings

Outside All Day 

Outside All Day

If you’re camping or making fun family memories outside all day, choose a longer-lasting formula for up to 10 hours of protection, like Repel® 100 Insect Repellent products with 98.11% DEET or picaridin-based Repel® Insect Repellent Mosquito & Tick products. If you’re outdoors for extended periods of time, be sure to reapply for longer protection.

WHO NEEDS MOSQUITO PROTECTION?

 

If the whole family is joining the adventure, consider a repellent appropriate for young children. DEET repellents do not have an age restriction. However, Repel® Plant-Based Lemon Eucalyptus Insect Repellent₂ DEET-Free* products should not be applied to children under age three. Always read and follow label directions when considering and using an insect repellent.
*Not a safety claim.

WHAT ACTIVITY ARE YOU PLANNING?

 

If you’re playing a sport or spending time out in the sun, consider an insect repellent formula that resists perspiration, like Repel® Insect Repellent Scented Family Formula® 15% DEET Aerosol, Repel® Insect Repellent Sportsmen Formula® 25% DEET products or Repel® Insect Repellent Sportsmen Max Formula® 40% DEET products.

 
Question Mark

DO YOU NEED AREA TREATMENT?

 

Consider treating clothing, backpacks, tents and shoes with a permethrin-based spray. This repellent isn’t made for the skin, but when your family adventures involve additional gear, it’s important to protect everything that will be outdoors. One treatment of Repel® Permethrin Clothing & Gear Insect Repellent lasts two weeks and holds up through several machine washings, so you don’t have to keep reapplying when adventure awaits.
