Jungle Formula Maximum 50% DEET Insect Repellent Aerosol 125ml

I was very ill after getting mosquito bites in Greece a few years ago. Obviously not wanting to repeat that awful episode but still wanting to travel.. I needed to protect myself the best I could. This jungle formula maximum strength gives fabulous protection. I sprayed on my lower legs & arms in the evening. I rubbed in after spraying it didn't feel sticky. It does smell a bit when applying ...I applied on my balcony! But the smell soon dies away once spray has dried. It smells ok to be honest. I had no bites ( i saw others with lots!) Contains 50% deet. ( The strength recommended by WHO) I have eczema but it did not irritate my skin. Providing up to9 hours protection. In a handy size spray. Easy to use. A definate must have for mosquitos !

Was good but awful smell and took breath away

Nice item that helps keep most of the bugs away

Great product... no bites!

This is the best in my opinion. It’s not natural, it’s chemical, but that’s why it works! I use only this and though it’s a strong smell, it stops us all getting bitten which is the most important thing!

I get terrorised by mosquitos every summer, they love my type O blood. Used this spray and the bugs started biting my type A blood partner instead who usually never has a problem with them!! Be careful not to spray in a small room as the smell is very strong

I use this spray when out in the flower beds wearing shorts and spray on my legs round the ankles and lower legs. It works a treat the biting, stinging insects leave me alone, they don’t like it up ‘em

I thought the spray-on format would be a good idea but not so much with such a caustic product. Obviously, it's deet and it repels insects so it's going to be caustic, but when you spray it rather than smooth it (even if you spray it into a cupped hand first) you end up breathing it in which is unpleasant, and to reach your legs you lean through the mist in the air and I found tiny amounts must have ended up on my face, resulting in very dry flaky skin, especially around my eyes. In terms of repelling insects - so far so good. I wear it on my legs when I wear shorts dog walking in the countryside. You have to replace it more like every 4 hours than every 16, But so far no bites. My legs end up quite dry but I'm using it every day so perhaps that's par for the course. I'll likely just buy a different format of the same product :)
