Lifesystems Expedition MAX DEET Mosquito Repellent 25ml

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

All-day protection from mosquitoes and midges, it is an essential bit of kit to carry in the tropics or the wilds of Scotland.

LifeSystems says: 

With a revolutionary new formula, Expedition MAX DEET mosquito repellent has been developed to replace the Expedition 100+ insect repellent but with half the amount of DEET. It combines the proven performance of 50% DEET with unique DermaLOC® technology that locks the repellent on the surface of the skin to provide long lasting protection from malarial and non-malarial mosquitoes.

Expedition MAX can be applied multiple times a day to provide round-the-clock protection. It can also be applied to larger areas of exposed skin (e.g. wearing shorts and t-shirt), unlike many other high-strength repellents on the market. This makes it practical in real-life conditions, especially in warmer climates.

Our Verdict

This is serious insect repellent, it provides 24h total daily protection against the malarial mosquito. It Contains 50% DEET (the strength recommended by the WHO) and is water and sweatproof, so can be used in hot and humid conditions such as the tropics without having to reapply constantly.
