Insects are a nuisance, and they can also be dangerous. They can spread diseases, cause allergic reactions, and even kill. That's why it's important to take steps to protect yourself from insects, and one of the best ways to do that is to use insect repellent.

The Insect Repellents Handbook is a comprehensive guide to insect repellents, providing information on their effectiveness, safety, and use. This book will help you choose the right insect repellent for your needs and use it safely and effectively.

What are insect repellents?

Insect repellents are products that are applied to the skin or clothing to deter insects from biting. They work by creating a barrier between the insect and the skin, making it difficult for the insect to bite. Insect repellents can be divided into two main categories: DEET-based and non-DEET based.

• DEET-based insect repellents are the most effective insect repellents available. They contain DEET, which is a chemical that has been used to repel insects for over 50 years. DEET is effective against a wide range of insects, including mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas.
• Non-DEET based insect repellents contain a variety of other chemicals, such as picaridin, IR3535, and essential oils. These repellents are less effective than DEET-based repellents, but they may be a better choice for people who are concerned about the safety of DEET.

How to choose the right insect repellent

When choosing an insect repellent, there are a few things you need to consider:

• The type of insect you are trying to repel. Some insect repellents are more effective against certain types of insects than others.
• The length of time you need protection. Some insect repellents provide protection for several hours, while others only provide protection for a few hours.
• Your personal preferences. Some people prefer to use DEET-based insect repellents, while others prefer to use non-DEET based repellents.

How to use insect repellent safely

Insect repellents can be harmful if they are not used safely. Here are a few tips for using insect repellent safely:

• Apply insect repellent to exposed skin and clothing. Do not apply insect repellent to your eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes.
• Do not apply insect repellent to children under 2 months old.
• Do not apply insect repellent more than once per day.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after applying insect repellent.
• Keep insect repellent out of reach of children.
