Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Life Systems Expedition 50+ is a high strength insect repellent spray which gives you up to 10 hours protection and combines natural pyrethroids with 50% DEET.

Life Systems says: 

Expedition 50+ contains a dual action formula which combines natural pyrethroids with DEET to provide a high level of protection against biting insects in all environments.

The natural pyrethroids act as a bite inhibitor, discouraging actual biting.

Each application of Expedition 50+ will last for up to 10 hours. Re-application may be required in areas with high temperature and humidity.

Biting arthropods transmit an array of vector-borne pathogens that cause diseases including malaria, dengue, lyme disease, filariasis, onchocerciasis and west nile virus. Therefore, insect repellents are important in reducing or preventing these insect borne infections.

The Expedition 50+ is Life Systems high strength insect repellent spray as it has a dual action formula with 50% DEET and an effective bite inhibitor to stop insects which do land on your skin from biting.

The dual action formula offers up to 10 hours protection and comes in 4 handy sizes, 100ml, 50ml and 25ml bottles with an easy to use pump spray top. It also comes as a lotion in a 50ml bottle.

Don’t let the little biting insects make an all you can eat meal out of your skin. Be prepared and cover up!
