Did the job well
Used whilst trekking and travelling in Peru and Bolivia. I personally had only one tiny bite whist many others on my trip suffered with lots of bites. I know some people suffer more than others however I think this really helped protect myself. I liked the smell, was quick and easy to apply and caused no irritation to my face or body. Great stuff!

It actually REALLY works, and doesn't feel like you're putting horrible chemicals on your skin!
I can't recommend this product enough! I first bought it for my child to use at Forest School - he is an absolute mozzie magnet and without this on would get severely bitten. (I tried natural alternatives such as citronella oil mix, but it didn't cut it, and I was adverse to using products with DEET on him) Anyway, it worked a treat so when I booked a trip to Sri Lanka I got some for me. The people in our group were using either natural repellents - which did not stave off the Sri Lankan mozzies even if they usually worked for them for UK ones - or using Jungle Formula DEET, which one person told me had spilled in their bag and had melted the plastic bag they kept it in! I shared my enthusiasm for my choice of spray and it ended up being used by quite a few people in the group, not only because it worked when other stuff didn't, but also because it actually smells really quite nice, and it doesn't seem to be full of nasties. I had to keep telling everyone I'm not some sort of rep - that's how much I kept going on about how good it is - so thought I should share my thoughts online too. For me it was just as effective on a trek in the jungle as it was while we were staying closer to the coast, I wish I taken the bigger bottle so I could have shared it more. One person in the group had in excess of 100 bites over the space of a couple of days (using a natural formula). By the end of 2 weeks I had 3 or 4 bites on my feet, where I presume the spray had washed off while I was walking in water.

Effective but oily
I react to most mosquito repellents so when this one said it was for sensitive skin I thought I'd give it a try.I took this to Kenya with me last month. I can't recall having any issue with the smell but I didn't like the greasy feel when I just sprayed it onto my skin. I did find it better to spray it into the palms of my hands and rub it on, although still oily it was less so and acceptable (most repellents do have a similar problem). I didn't get bit at all. Whilst I'm not a mosquito magnet I do get the occasional bite but not on this trip. Even after 10 days I still have a good amount left in the bottle for use on my next trip.Yes, I would buy again, now I know how best to apply.

Does Work Very Well
Used for the first time and for the first time came home with zero bites. Went to Kefalonia in late June without the repellent and as always on the Greek Islands, got bitten half to death. Multiple areas with multiple attempts at getting blood, leading to 50p size welts on arms and legs.Returned to Kefalonia first week in September, exact same place. This time with Trek sensitive.Applied it to arms, legs, face and neck in the evening before we went out. Result = ZERO bites. First time ever, even though had used repellent wipes previously.The stuff is thick and feels oily to start with when patch sprayed initially, but when spread and rubbed in to skin it vanishes and leaves a pleasant smell.As to coverage, spray 4 to 5 patches to each arm and leg before spreading and rubbing in and using residue left on hands for face and neck, applied just in the evening... I would think the 100mm bottle would have lasted me alone for 3 weeks.Suffered no skin irritation through its use, nor any other things such as fabric stains. Recommended.

Wonderful
Works great against everything that wants to eat you. Even found it effective against sand flies in Thailand too.Easy to apply, the slight stickiness goes after a minute or two and it last a long time remaining effective.Thoroughly recommend.
