Insect Repellent 250ml

Our E’scential Insect Repellent is formulated from all-natural ingredients inclusive of essential oils and plant extracts. These natural products will effectively repel mosquitoes, but they require more frequent re-application (at least every 4 hours) and higher concentrations than their other chemical counter-part. Because of the differences between types of mosquitoes, products that contain multiple repellents tend to be more effective than those containing a single ingredient.

Incorporating with anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and antiseptic properties, this product is also highly recommended for use as a deodorizer to eliminate odour biologically and act as a hard surface disinfectant to kill and control a wide spectrum of microbial. 

Microbial and insects CANNOT develop resistance to natural ingredients, therefore our E’scential Repellent is powerful but completely safe for the family to use all day if needed - there is absolutely no danger of over application. It is also fully useable indoor and outdoors.

Nootkatone, a grapefruit-scented terpene, extracted from grapefruit skins or the bark of the Alaska yellow cedar and going through specialized fermentation processes, is a new addition to the small arsenal of mosquito-control tools that could help stop the spread of mosquito transmitted diseases like Zika virus, dengue and etc., according to a Swiss biotechnology firm.

Plant terpenes such as citronella and geraniol have long been known to repel mosquitoes; indeed, plants produce the chemicals to deter insect predation

CDC researchers have shown that Nootkatone can kill adult mosquitoes as well as ticks and fleas. And one CDC study suggests that its mode of action is different from those of synthetic pesticides (J. Med. Entomol., 2010, DOI: dx.doi.org/10.1603/ME10098). Killing off mosquito populations is becoming increasingly difficult as they develop resistance to traditional permethrin, organophosphate, carbamate, and dieldrin insecticides, according to the CDC.

The World Health Organization advises that controlling the spread of Zika requires removing mosquito breeding sites and reducing contact between mosquitoes and people, such as by insect repellent.
