We bought these a few weeks before our holiday to South Africa this year (2023) in particular for our safari to Kruger National Park. Considering we were always together and should have been affected equally or at the very least close to the same the difference is like chalk and cheese. Natural Ingredients: Our waterproof mosquito repellent bracelets are non-toxic and safe to use against mosquitoes, bedbugs, and pesky insects because our mosquito repellent bands contain essential oils of citronella, lavender, eucalyptus, and lemongrass, as well as soothing geraniol oil derived from the geranium plant. We holidayed in Sardinia last week, wore both the bracelets (on wrists as well as ankles)as well as using the spray and got absolutely peppered in bites.

I originally bought Pestects bands for a trip to Zimbabwe Dec 22, as we were off to a malaria area and bugs love to chomp on me. Absolutely brilliant - highly recommend and the multi pack is great for a family with so many colours you can match your outfit! I have been bitten in 10 places on my right leg and in 5 places on my left arm, so I was very disappointed.

I was only asking if there may be something that my body changes the effectiveness of these bracelets as there were only positive comments on Facebook. These arrived in one bag, quite annoying as soon as opened they will start to loose the smell from the active ingredient. Premium Material: Our anti-mosquito bracelets are made of non-toxic, flexible EVA material that is very soft, flexible, durable and quality tested, and very comfortable to wear on your hair, wrists, and ankles to keep pesky mosquitoes away. Also reading on here that the Facebook negative reviews are all being deleted and only show positive (or possibly fake) reviews. It could be that in St Lucia which is very green and rains a lot, there are just too many for the bands to cope with as the mosquitoes are a formidable force in the country.

I can’t speak highly enough of this product and have already recommended it to anyone who would listen and the family group we went with all want to use them in future. I wore them on both ankles and both wrists and have had a great trip to Cyprus with no bites at all. Our natural oil solution is a refreshing alternative to traditional chemical repellents, which emit overpowering smells and require constant reapplication. I saw theses bracelets advertised on Facebook and thought why not give them a try as I always get bad reactions to bites. The fact they don’t have chemicals makes then ideal for children my friend hangs one on her baby’s pram.I (mum) didn't wear a pestects bracelet and got bitten multiple times despite using deep containing products from the leading high street pharmacy.

currently in Spain and I wear the bracelets and add a little extra of spray at night (even wear them in bed), been in the sea and I have no bites…. What a fantastic product, honestly didn’t think it would work but just spent 2 weeks in Majorca and usually get bitten alive…had one on my wrist and one on opposite ankle and didn’t get one bite - lots of people were walking around covered in bites and none for me - fantastic product and won’t go abroad again without them. I've written 2 messages on the Contact Us form, but have had no reply despite their assurance they respond within 24 hours 7 days a week!Effective Mosquito Repellent Protection: Our mosquito wristband provides long-lasting protection against mosquito bites. One Size Fits All: Our bug repellent bracelets have no mess, no spray, no worries, adjustable mosquito nets that are stylish and comfortable for adults to wear. While I did get a few bits it was nothing compared to previous experiences, and the rest of the family felt the same. I had one bite on the last night - the blue bracelet I wore on the ankle had a lot of colour bleed from the sea and shower ( non of the other colours bled ) and I wonder if that lessened their effectiveness as that was where I got my solo bite. Bought these as I normally get bitten to death, I had them on my ankles and wrists even tho it said you only needed one on and that they lasted days, I changed mine every day and got eaten alive!

Great for outdoor activities such as camping, hunting, running, hiking, traveling, fishing, barbecuing, gardening, picnicking, golfing, or even a simple barbecue. I am very pleased I didn't because I’d been told many tales about the 'nasty wee beasties' roaming and flying about. For maximum protection across your entire body, you can adjust one bracelet to your wrist and ankle to ensure bugs keep away.

I trusted they'd work, but had to fork out on proper pharmacy sold repellent spray and antibiotic cream. Was unsure if these would work because the only thing that usually works for me is jungle formula maximum - so glad I bought them though. these small bands are the best as not one bite on us plus we noticed lots of people hitting annoying flies away but they never bothered us .
