Alpa Repellent repels biting insects and ticks, 90 ml

Are you using the repellent correctly?

1. First apply sunscreen, let it absorb, and then apply the repellent. If you need to reapply sunscreen after a while, this does not apply to the repellent unless you notice that the insects are starting to annoy you more. It is advisable to avoid 2-in-1 products that combine sun protection and insect repellent, as sunscreen needs to be applied more frequently than insect repellent.
2. Apply gently and evenly and do not overdo the amount. Mosquitoes can find even a small unprotected spot on your skin. Shake the canister and spray the product evenly on your skin and clothing from a distance of 10-20 cm. For lotions and creams, you should also follow the information on the packaging - they usually advise applying a thin layer of the product to exposed areas. This should be sufficient - with repellent, more is not better. Try to avoid inhaling the repellent at all costs, so apply it in a well-ventilated area and away from open flames.
3. Do not apply under clothing. Although clothing protects you from insects wherever it covers the skin, it is still advisable to spray on those areas too. However, first test the spray on a small hidden area of the fabric to see if it will damage it. Never use repellent under clothing. It is unnecessary and may harm you.
4. For sensitive areas, apply the product with your hands. Never spray directly onto your face or ears. Spray the necessary amount into your palm and then spread the product over your face, neck, and the outer part of your ears. Avoid the eyes and nostrils. Don't forget to apply it to your head if you are bald or have shaved hair. Repellent may worsen the condition of cuts and other wounds, so avoid areas with damaged or irritated skin. After application, wash your hands thoroughly, especially if you plan to eat.
5. Don't forget your feet, ankles, and knees. Ticks often get on these areas from plants low to the ground, making them considered high-risk spots.
6. Be mindful of children's safety. Experts say that children under two months of age should not use repellent at all. Do not spray directly onto the skin of older children either. Spray the necessary amount onto your hand and then apply appropriately to the child. Avoid their hands, eyes, nostrils, and mouth.
7. Repeat the application only if necessary. A quality repellent will protect for several hours. Some people attract insects more intensely than others. If mosquitoes start bothering you again, it means it's time to reapply the repellent. Remember to do this after swimming or if you are sweating heavily, as the repellent may wash off.

After returning from insect-free areas, wash off the repellent thoroughly from yourself and the children with soap and water.
