Theo10® REPELS - ‘Wind-proof insect repellent’
Repels mosquito and ants
Why it is more effective than others
1. System of protection is unique and different from the rest. Instead of engulfing with smell to repel mosquitoes, your exposed skin is coated with a fine layer of oils to act as a barrier against insect bites especially mosquitoes.
2. While other repellents use smell and is effective indoors, the element of wind is present and hence would blow away the smell, dissipating the smell and hence the protection. Theo10 Repels ensure that regardless of the presence of wind, your exposed skin would remain protected.
3. While others use smell from stickers and patches, it usually does not prove useful or effective, but it does embarrass the user with the strong stench. Theo10 Repels is scent-less after 5 minutes. It initially smells like mint-orange but is replaced with a mild vanilla smell after, lasting up to 4 hours as it is the evidence of the oils staying atop the skin protecting it.
4. While it is DEET-Free, it can only last up to 4 hours. But is it safe for young babies, does not cause any reaction to the skin nor does it trigger common symptoms usually caused by DEET including rashes, skin irritation, numb or burning lips, nausea and headaches. Prolonged useage of repellents containing any trace of DEET leads to diffuse brain cell death and behavorial changes. Up to 56% of DEET applied topically penetrates intact human skin and 17% is absored into the bloodstream. Its effects on the central nervous which can lead to deficits and leaning and memory dysfunction.
