A few weeks ago I got loads of mozzy bites, usually in the later afternoon. Our gites have mosquito nets fitted to all windows, but sometimes they still get in with opening doors etc. So, I did a bit of research and found a list of known deterants. So, look for a product that contains one of these active ingredients.
- DEET
- Picaridin (known as KBR 3023 and icaridin outside the US)
- IR3535
- Oil of lemon eucalyptus (OLE)
- Para-menthane-diol (PMD)
- 2-undecanone
