CHOOSING THE RIGHT MOSQUITO REPELLENT
Choosing the right insect repellent to fit your outdoor fun can make repelling mosquitoes effortless. And there’s nothing better than having fun outdoors, while protecting the people you love most. Cutter® brand offers personal mosquito repellents ideal for every activity and every member of your family.
ASK YOURSELF THESE QUESTIONS:
Find a mosquito repellent labeled for the length of time you’ll be outdoors. Remember that length of protection for a personal insect repellent is tied to the percentage of the active ingredient. For example, the higher the percentage of DEET, the longer your protection will last.
For short outings, pick a repellent lower in DEET, like Cutter® Skinsations® Insect Repellent or Cutter® Dry Insect Repellent or try a Cutter® Lemon Eucalyptus Insect Repellent
If you’re camping or working outside all day, choose a longer-lasting formula for up to 10 hours of protection, like Cutter® Backwoods® Insect Repellent products with 25% DEET or picaridin-based Cutter® Backwoods® Tick Defense® Insect Repellent.
If you are outdoors for extended periods of time, be sure to reapply for longer protection.
For families who love nothing better than being in the backyard, consider Cutter® Backyard™ Bug Control Spray Concentrate. This formula kills mosquitoes, ticks, fleas and other listed insects around your yard, patio, deck or picnic area.
If you’ll be spending time together on a deck or patio, you might also want to consider a zone mosquito repellent like the Cutter® Eclipse™ Zone Mosquito Repellent device, which gives you a ten-foot zone of protection at the push of a button!
