"Which " latest report re. mossie repellents.

[scorcher]

Just got my copy of the mag. and they have tested most if not all the repellents. Best buy goes to Boots Repel Extra Strength @ £5.37 for120ml.Next are 2 from Jungle Fomula's brand followed by Superdrugs Buzz off Kids.They also state that Avon's Skin So Soft does not deter mossies !! Check out; www.which.co.uk/repellent  . Please don't shoot the messenger and hope this will help folks . Good luck !!

I have used Boots mossie wipes for four years and would not go past them.  I wonder if it is the same stuff in them as the one mentioned.

Many folk have sworn by the Avon Skin so Soft.  I am just a bit wary about changing when I have something that works.  Previous products failed badly and I was eaten alive.

skin so soft works for me.

As does Marmite

Skin so soft has never worked for me- but neither has anything else.
If you find something that works for you, then stick with it.

We like the local stuff Kin Sov does the trick for us my husband won't use anything else

You're not getting in the pool with me mate

If something already works for you then why change it? I find I'm OK taking a teaspoon of marmite every day for 2 weeks before I go and then once there I use jungle formula and copious amounts of efes.

Works for me so I won't be changing things (might drink a little more efes this time though)

I doubt it,  the price has gone up.    :D

I can always find extra efes money - might have to buy less food though

A spray called 'Off' works for me, where as the cream didn't? Weird.
