Designed for toddlers from the age of 1, this repellent spray has been formulated with pharmaceutical precision, taking into account the skin sensitivity of young children. Its main active ingredient, 10% DEET, is recognized and recommended by health authorities for its repellent effectiveness.

By combining skin and clothing protection, the effectiveness rate rises to 99.6% against bites. A real anti-mosquito armor for your children!
The spray is suitable for all situations: vacations in the forest, walks in the countryside, evenings by the seaside or even in tropical risk zones.

A few tips to avoid mosquito bites:
- Adopt good personal hygiene, as mosquitoes are attracted by body odors such as sebum and sweat. Certain perfumes also attract females.
- Keep skin exposure to a minimum: wear light-colored clothing, as mosquitoes are attracted by dark colors, which emit more heat.
- Avoid places near stagnant water: mosquitoes are numerous near places where they can lay their eggs. Consequently, try to eliminate stagnant water (buckets, dustbins, tires, containers, etc.), cover water tanks, drain water from tarpaulins, etc.
- Place a fan near you: mosquitoes bite less on very windy days, because they can't fight off air currents. Placing a low-speed fan on the balcony or in the bedroom will prevent them from entering or moving around properly.
- Protect yourself especially at the end of the day: mosquitoes are most active at the end of the day. Avoid being outdoors without protection during this period.
- Adopt a mosquito net: It's out of the question to sleep with your windows open. A mosquito net is an effective way of protecting yourself from mosquitoes while enjoying the fresh air outside. A few sprays of repellent can be applied to the mosquito net for even greater protection.
