Ultrathon Insect Repellent Lotion, 2 oz

I needed an insect repellent and needed it delivered the same day as we were heading to a friend's "cottage" the next morning, and this product was one of the options. I thought I'd give it a try and now, 2 days after returning from the trip have already recommended it to 3 people. This is FANTASTIC!! My son is quite allergic to mosquito bites (once, he had a bite by his left temple and the whole side of his face swelled almost to the point where his eye was swollen shut) so I was pretty nervous about the "cottage" since it is carved out of the deep woods in northern Wisconsin. The cottage was a camper, so we slept in a tent and were outside the entire time - the only clearing of the woods was for the camper, the tent and the fire pit, so mosquitoes were abundant. As soon as we got there I applied this to all exposed skin areas for myself and my son, then used Deep Woods Off on our clothing. My wife opted for Off all over. I applied it at 4pm, went to bed at 11pm. My son came home the next morning with ZERO bites. I came home with one - in the middle of my back (where I had not applied this lotion) and through my shirt (where I had applied Off). My wife came home with about 7-8 bites. PROS: - Goes on like a lotion, so if you do it right you ensure complete coverage, unlike a spray where you could miss (and half of what you spray doesn't land on your skin, anyway). Get under the tops of your socks, up inside your shorts and sleeves, ears, neck, face... - Almost no smell at all. Perhaps a little at first, very mild, but dissipates right away. - You're not inhaling it like you do with sprays. - It lasts. Not sure about 12 hours, but it lasted for us for at least 7 hours - one application. While wearing shorts/short sleeves. CONS: - It feels a bit greasy once it's on. It still feels a bit greasy hours later, but it doesn't look greasy. - Small tubes - only 2 oz. That said, one application covered my and my 7 year old, and I could probably do that at least 2-3 more times out of this one tube. NEUTRAL: - We still had clouds of skeeters buzzing around us. It's not purported to be a magical energy barrier that keeps them from flying all around you, but it does keep them from biting you. - They will still bite where you don't apply it. That's not the fault of the product, it's yours. When putting it on, think like a skeeter - where can they get to? And yes, they bite through fabric so either treat the clothing or treat yourself.

I was in Kolkata and other rural regions of India along the river and it was hot with humidity like I’ve never experienced before in my life (my socks fused to my LED cured gel toe nail polish if that gives you any idea to the severity). I brought along this mosquito lotion because my travel nurse said this was the only one she would suggest. She was right!! My friends with me got bit a handful of times with some other deet spray they brought, but I did not get bit once the whole week and a half I was there - and the mosquitos were reealll y’all! I was even speaking to a village one night next to the water so they hooked up florescent lights next to and behind me. They wanted everyone to be able to see me but I was getting swarmed by mosquitos because of the lights. I was silently in a panic and tried to inconspicuously move over some, but they were all up in my business. I mean a pretty gross lot of them. I walked away that night without a single puncture. I was super sweaty too which made the thick lotion feel a bit yucky, but I figured it was better to feel a little uncomfortable than get tagged by a mosquito in India. So yes, the lotion is a little thick, but if you truly need the protection, I can’t recommend anything else. I only use this now, even at home (California) and even on my toddler granddaughter. She’s a poor little pin cushion, like her grandma, unless I put this stuff on her. When the Ultrathon lotion is on tho’, she doesn’t get touched. It’s worth the layer, trust me.

I got flea infestation in my apartment after I kept my neighbor's cat for a couple of days. I got bitten all over my legs and it looked horrible. I cleaned and cleaned and cleaned but they were still there. I called the exterminators but they said they couldn't come right away. So I had to live with this hateful things for 2 days. But after I got 3M Ultrathon Insect Repellent Lotion, I didn't get bitten. It said it lasts 12 hours. But for me, it lasted about 6 hours. But it was much better than none because it did keep those fleas away. My only complaint is ( other than it didn't last 12 hours) that it feels greasy and sticky. These greasy sticky feeling last until you wash it off with soap, and you have to wash a couple times. But it was much better than being a flea food. So if I get in trouble again, I know what to buy now. I would highly recommend this product to the people who are in the same situation but I would't recommend it to use it as a regular insect repellent or use it regularly. This should be used in the emergency situation.

Efficiente contro tutti i tipi di inzetti ma troppo caro per la quantita' venduto. In pratica il costo e' a peso d'oro

mas de 17 y 7 mas de aduana, mas de 24.

Tenia problemas con las pulgas que mis perros cogen a veces o al andar de caza, que las pulgas se van de los animales muertos y suelen venir a mi, no se que tiene mi sangre. Con esto no se acercan ni las moscas cojoneras. El bote aunque pequeño da para unas 20 aplicaciones de cuerpo entero.

E’ una crema, un po’ una rottura doverla spalmare, ma funziona meglio di qualsiasi prodotto io abbia mai provato .. e li ho provati quasi tutti.

Satisfecho
