Choosing the right insect repellent depends on several factors including the type of insects you are protecting against, the duration of protection needed, and the age of the user. For example: - For Mosquitoes: Products with DEET or Picaridin are highly effective. - For Ticks: Products with 20-30% DEET or Picaridin are recommended. - For Children: Products with lower concentrations of DEET or Picaridin, or those containing Oil of Lemon Eucalyptus, are safer options.
