In a hike, on a picnic and even in our own yard, mosquitoes and ticks await us. Insects-parasites not only spoil the impression of summer rest, but also seriously endanger our health. Every year the list of diseases carried by them becomes more and more long and awesome.
To encephalitis and Lyme disease, tropical infections that were not previously heard in the US - Zick viruses and West Nile fever - were added. The situation is further aggravated by the fact that this summer in America there is a real invasion of mosquitoes and a significant increase in the population of ticks.
So, without a good remedy for insects simply can not do. The US Consumer Union decided to test several popular repellents to find among them really effective. The results of the experiment the organization published in the publication Consumer Reports.
On an excellent test were only the means in which there are synthetic components Deet and Picaridin or natural oil of lemon eucalyptus. These substances are included in the sprays of Ben's, Sawyer, Repel and a number of other companies.
As for products based on the components IR3535 and 2-Undecanone, they cope with the whole task worse, not giving 100% protection against harmful insects. The same can be said about natural repellents with oils of cedar, citronella, lemongrass and rosemary - contrary to the promises of manufacturers such remedies will not save you from bites.
