Smidge Insect Repellent (75ml)

Product Information

It’s been used by the Marines, mosquitos hate it, you have to get the one in the see-through bottle because they changed the recipe, it goes on and on and on.

Lifesystems Expedition Midge Repellent contains the active ingredient Saltidin® to provide increased protection from midges and smaller biting insects. Thanks to its novel, water and sweat resisting formula it provides powerful, immediate protection for up to 8 hours without re-application. I must be an extreme case as (as I have already stated) nobody else in my party has been bitten anywhere near as badly as me. Thanks to those fearless men and women, you can rely on Smidge to keep the beasties at bay during your next adventure. It is more suited for sensitive skin than DEET based repellents and is also suitable for use on children over 2 years of age.With our Tracked Airmail service you may be required to pay import taxes or customs calculated by your local customs authority. I found myself favouring the Trek Midge and Tick as personally for me it didn’t wear off as quickly. Unfortunately i forgot to reapply as they werent bothering me and had a few bites in the morning, bur that was obviously my fault. Smidge has a unique, patented formula making it the UK Europe’s only water resistant insect repellent. What I did notice via social media, is that there are so many people that have said they will never go to Scotland because of the Midges – This only compounds your concerns, but that’s where we are going (for 10 nights).

Scotland is not unique with its biting beasties population but, certainly, many people will have heard of the fierce Scottish midge. The Pyramid Trek Midge and Tick came in a smaller sized bottle than the Smidge so it took up less room and had a spray which gave good coverage. They were really helpful and passionate about their products, a family owned business that wanted to provide the best possible products and give informative advice to it’s users.The dual-action formula provides up to 8 hours of protection and the repellent lasts 24 months from when first opened. Tornato in Italia l'ho sfruttato per le zanzare tigre e non e devo dire che non mi è mai capitato di esser stato punto anche quando ce n'erano parecchie in giro. Information and statements about products are not intended to be used to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or health condition. This is one of those topics where there are so many different stories and the more you look the more you find. Devised and made in Scotland (where we know about midges), it keeps the midges away and can moisturise your skin at the same time.

They haven’t been bitten at all, not once – It works for them and not for me, so it is unfair at this stage to say that PRODUCT X is RUBBISH. Probably not, but it was VERY effective and as I said earlier, Mrs TentLife mainly used this one and the buggers did not like it at all. If we’re honest, there will be more than just a few midges around in some west coast places, and especially in the early morning and as the sun sets in the evening. We did use it, nobody died and nobody’s skin fell off – however it did leak into one of our dry bags and lets just say it no longer keeps stuff dry (haha). So the combination of these ingredients will moisturise, hydrate and protect your skin in so many ways!Our schedule was hectic, with lots of time spent hiking, climbing or canoeing (to the pub) and general site seeing. The Smidge wipes and the pocket sized bottle were very convenient for carrying around and applying quickly.
