Where do I need Insect Repellent?
Mosquitoes and midges are found in most countries around the world and the chances of contracting insect borne disease such as malaria increase the closer you get to tropical destinations.
We recommend the use of regular strength products in all countries however, when visiting sub-tropical and tropical destinations (see the map below), we would recommend the use of an extra strength product, containing 50% DEET, except for children under 6 years old.
Precautions for high-risk destinations should be discussed with your doctor prior to travelling. For more information please use our interactive map below.
