Product Information

Full details

The Lifesystems Midge Repellent is an ideal solution for outdoor enthusiasts and travelers seeking protection against midges and small biting insects without the use of DEET. Its 20% Saltidin formula provides a medium-high level of defense for up to 8 hours, making it a reliable choice for those with sensitive skin. Users should note that while it is highly effective against midges, the formula requires reapplication after a full work day or heavy perspiration to maintain its maximum protective efficacy.

Can I apply this over sunscreen?

Does this repel ticks as well?

How do I know when the repellent has expired?

The product remains effective for 24 months after the first spray. Keep track of the opening date to ensure you are within this window.

Will this stain my clothing?

The formula is designed to be non-greasy, but it is always best practice to apply to skin first or test on a small patch of fabric.

Is the bottle recyclable?

Yes, the aluminium bottle is widely recyclable once empty; check your local council recycling facilities.
