On our testing labs, we give each repellent the chance to show how well it performs at:

• time periods ranging from 5 min to 6 hours
• we also list all the active ingredients for each product
• all the associated claims with each product
• and how they are applied to the skin for your protection.

And our Recommended list will help you see quickly which models come out on top.

Shopping links on the CHOICE website

CHOICE is an independent, non-profit organisation dedicated to helping consumers. Clicking a link will take you to a retailer's website to shop. While we make money if you buy through some retailer links, this doesn't influence any of our rankings. 100% of the money we make goes straight back into our non profit mission. We're currently testing this service and will consider providing more shopping links in the future. Tell us what you think.
