<section class=”abstract”>”We conclude that many of the products that we tested that were marketed as repellents do not reduce mosquito attraction to humans.”
“The results of our study show clearly that DEET and PMD [oil of lemon eucalyptus] are very effective mosquito repellents when used in sufficient concentration, while the other active ingredients had lower efficacy. This finding confirms the findings of several other studies that found DEET and PMD the most effective and longest lasting mosquito repellents currently available.”
