The Puressentiel Bite & Sting Spray works in 2 ways: repellent and soothing.
Repellent action: based on a powerful active ingredient of vegetal origin (Citriodiol®), derived from lemon eucalyptus essential oil, it effectively repels mosquitoes in infested, temperate and tropical areas, as well as other biting insects (ticks, sandflies).
Soothing action: this product is also ideal for soothing bites immediately, thanks to its 5 essential oils (Tea Tree, Citronella Java, Lavandin Grosso, Niaouli and Peppermint).
- Offers one possible method of protection, in particular against Zika fever, malaria, dengue fever, yellow fever, chikungunya and Lyme disease.
- Laboratory tested efficacy: up to 7 hours against tiger mosquitoes (Aedes albopictus), common house mosquitoes (Culex pipiens) and sandflies (Phlebotomus duboscqi), up to 6.5 hours against tropical mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae), up to 5 hours against ticks (Ixodes ricinus). Swimming or sweating may reduce the duration of protection
- Spray without propellant gas - 0% neurotoxic insect repellent.
*In compliance with current regulations, tests of effectiveness were only carried out on invertebrates (fleas and bedbugs, clothes moths, lice, mites, etc.) and environmental non-toxicity risk assessments on Danio renio.

Excellent products as ever
I haven't had to use that particular product as yet (but did use others I bought at the same time) but all the products I have so far purchased from Puressential are excellent.
