7th Sep 2007
Overall Rating
- Value for money
- Fragrance DescriptionCitrus
- How long does it last?Under one hour
- Strength of Scent
This repellent was not effective, and did not do what it states on the can! It may be cheaper, but I ended up paying prescription fees for antihistamines tablets and creams, antibiotics, plus cooling patches. Tesco state the repellent does what it states! I currently still have the scars from the bites, after I had sprayed the repellent and sat in a garden for a few hours on a summer evening in the UK.
I normally use Jungle Formula which I would highly recommend if your are a suffer from insect bites.
