Incognito Mosquito Repellent Spray
Incognito mosquito repellent spray is effective against all insects, including mosquitoes, gnats, sand flies, midges, ticks and fleas. Made in the UK, Incognito is a 100 percent natural, non-toxic insect repellent. In addition to a mosquito repellent spray, Incognito offers a range of insect repellent products including after sun moisturiser, hair and body wash, soaps, incense sticks and citronella oil.
100 percent natural, powerful, non-greasy mosquito repellent spray with a fresh, pleasant smell. Clinically proven to protect against malaria. Repels all insects. Biodegradable. Deet-free.
Incognito works in two ways. Firstly, it repels insects and secondly, it camouflages your kairomones. Kairomones are chemicals you produce, such as carbon dioxide, lactic acid and carboxylic acid, which are attractive to mosquitoes.
How Effective is Incognito Mosquito Repellent Spray?
Ten years in the making, Incognito mosquito repellent spray protects you from insect bites even in extreme conditions, day and night. On average Incognito spray provides five hours of protection against biting insects. Incognito is stronger than Deet insect repellent and is clinically proven to protect against malaria.
The active ingredient in Incognito is plant-based Eucalyptus maculata citriodora. Research carried out in the Bolivian Amazon and published in the British Medical Journal found this ingredient significantly reduced the risk of malaria when used in conjunction with a treated mosquito net. The researchers showed there was a greater reduction in malaria episodes among people using natural insect repellent alongside mosquito nets, than in people using mosquito nets alone.
How Safe is Incognito Mosquito Repellent Spray?
Incognito mosquito repellent spray is made from a range of carefully blended natural ingredients, many of which are organically certified. Incognito is a safe alternative to chemical repellents such as Deet and it does not damage plastic or other materials, including clothing.
Incognito spray is harmless to animals and the environment. As it is not tested on animals or derived from animals, it meets the approval of the Vegan Society and proudly displays the society’s logo on its bottles. Incognito has a light, citrus fragrance, is non-greasy and kind to your skin. It is safe for all the family including babies from six months of age.
