Product Information

The Danube River is one of the oldest and longest rivers that flows for over 1800 miles through the heart of Europe.

So if I am here trying to tell you where to spend you money, what can I say to help you decide what to use? As I said, others in our party were using the products as directed and getting bitten nowhere near as much as me, if at all. Smidge Insect Repellant is developed and tested in Scotland by midge experts in the harshest conditions, Smidge contains a dastardly ingredient that works by cleverly throwing the little bleeders off our scent. Well, I decided t take the opportunity to approach a number of manufacturers of midge repellents, take them all on holiday and get our group of 6 to give them a test.Again, this product (Trek Midge and Tick) uses the active ingredient Saltidin to deter the midges and claim a 12 hour life as it has a slow release process.

Pro-Equine uses only high quality ingredients, sourced in Britain if possible, and all products conform to FEI regulations. Our middle daughter regularly used Smidge and Avon Skin-So-Soft whilst in Scotland and didn’t suffer any bites. The Kumano Kodo is a UNESCO World Heritage pilgrimage trail, and walking both it and the Camino can give you the honor of being a dual pilgrim. Deet smells horrid making skin oily, sticky and generally unpleasant, ruining whatever you're wearing, so little chance of donning the advised light coloured clothing. Completely natural, with no hidden chemicals or scary Deet or citronella, Midge-Los has a pleasant smell of refreshing peppermint and geranium.

Naturally-sourced Eucalyptus Citriodora Rich Botanic Oil, a powerful insect repellent containing high levels of PMD, the single most effective repellent found in nature. I received my parcel a lot sooner than I thought and as I said couldn't be more pleased with the items. I must be an extreme case as (as I have already stated) nobody else in my party has been bitten anywhere near as badly as me. Avon’s Skin So Soft This moisturizer was not created as a midge fighter but for some reason, someone realized it works against the beasties. I am SO GLAD that my kids were out of reach when I used this, as I would have put it on to them before I had the reaction.

Smidge has a unique, patented formula making it the UK Europe’s only water resistant insect repellent. Me había comentado ya que tuviera cuidado con los midges, que son unos mini mosquitos que atacan en grupo. I washed my hair, face, body and brushed my teeth 3 times each and put my exposed clothes into a bag not to be touched. However, if I’m going away and want protection from midges I only want to rely on factual evidence and not Chinese whispers. Pyramid also have a ECOGUARD fabric spray for repelling insects, ideal for backpacks and apparently tents.

Ho acquistato questo repellente per un viaggio in Scozia (dovevo visitare anche posti fuori città) ma non ho trovato alcun insetto quindi non l'ho usato.

It is such an amazing place, we are going back soon for the TentLife adventures into wild camping – should be interesting (haha). Completing an Alpine crossing is a test of mind, body and spirit, but along with this come the rewards that only a long-distance tour can provide, a special feeling of achievement and memories that will last forever.

Smidge That Midge One of the most highly acclaimed midge repellents, it comes as a pump spray and claims to be water and sweat resisting formula with “immediate protection for up to eight hours without re-application”. We don’t just sit about, so we will be out and about and don’t want our activities to be ruined by midge attacks.
