Mywipe Insect wipes have been carefully impregnated with Citrepel 75®, which is a NATURAL, highly effective insect repellent which outperforms DEET in tests. These individually wrapped wipes are specially formulated to repel mosquitoes and other biting insects. When applied to all areas of exposed skin they can give lasting protection of up to 6 hours. The wipes are suitable for children over 6 months of age, but should be applied by an adult. The resealable plastic pack contains 20 wipes, individually wrapped in a sealed foil sachet for freshness and convenience travel. For decades, synthetic insect repellents have always out-performed natural products. In field tests natural Citrepel 75® outperformed a range of other repellent materials, including DEET, thus changing the natural order.
On August 1st 2012 DEET will be included onto Annex 1 of the Biocidal Products Directive. Any products on the market that contain DEET will require authorisation under the Biocidal Products Regulations. We have decided not to apply for authorisation because we firmly believe Citrepel out performs DEET to every level thus providing a natural solution to a natural problem.
