Ecoguard is the sensible alternative to harsh insect repellents based on DEET which is already banned in a number of countries worldwide. Taking the green approach does not mean you have to compromise on safety. Ecoguard provides equivalent protection against mosquito landings to 50% DEET product, and one application will last up to 8 hours. Ecoguard is safe for use on children over 2 years of age and those with sensitive skin and will not damage plastics and jewellery like DEET products.
