Repellents

Insect Protection

Mosquitoes, midges, and ticks – these are the main reasons for a spoiled outdoor leisure experience. Constant buzzing in your ear, painful bites, and itching – almost everyone has encountered this. To protect yourself from them, you can use folk methods, or you can buy BaseCamp repellents and not worry about the inconvenience caused by these pests.

No matter where you relax – by a body of water or in the forest, mosquitoes will find you everywhere. Even in the Carpathians, where it might seem they shouldn't be, their numbers have been increasing in recent years. So, before heading out for adventures, it's worth choosing the right repellents or other types of insect protection.

What is the danger of mosquito and tick bites?

Repellents and fumigators BaseCamp protect against various types of insects – mosquitoes, midges, and ticks. These small creatures not only create discomfort during outdoor recreation but are also carriers of various diseases. Therefore, a mosquito or tick bite can cause serious illnesses. For example, common mosquitoes often bite not only humans but also livestock, thus transmitting their diseases, and ticks are usually carriers of infections. And even if the insect that bit you this time didn't transmit any infection, the outer protective layer of the skin is damaged, and the insect's poison enters the body. For some people, this may manifest as ordinary itching that passes in a few days, while for others – it can develop into an allergic reaction. So sprays and creams BaseCamp are reliable protection in such cases. They mask the human scent for insects without harming the environment.

What types of mosquito protection does BaseCamp offer?

To protect yourself from insects in nature, you need to choose the right type of protection. The BaseCamp brand has developed several different options for various usage conditions:

• BaseCamp DEET 50 Insect Spray protects for up to 10 hours continuously. The high content of the active substance (DEET) and convenient spray application form allow for reliable protection against mosquitoes, midges, and ticks. It can be used in humid conditions and is sweat-resistant. After swimming, showering, or bathing, it needs to be reapplied. The manufacturer warns that it is better not to use it for children under 6 years old, pregnant women, and people with sensitive skin.
• Insect spray BaseCamp DEET 35 with a lower content of the active substance is suitable for outdoor recreation and camping. It "works" for up to 10 hours and reliably protects against mosquito and tick bites. It is available in two volumes – 50 ml and 100 ml. The smaller volume is ideal for hikes and travels with limited luggage, and the insect spray BaseCamp DEET 35 100 ml – is an ideal solution for a family or a group of several people.
• Insect cream BaseCamp DEET 34% Cream is developed based on two active ingredients – Diethyltoluamide (Deet) and Pyrethrins. Both are designed to neutralize the human body odor for insects. Thus, they simply "don't detect" where to fly. Protects for up to eight hours.
• Equipment impregnation BaseCamp MGP Spray is developed for insect protection. The spray's base is Permethrin, which reliably neutralizes odors for mosquitoes and midges. In addition, ticks do not crawl onto equipment treated with this impregnation, so you can rest assured. Suitable for treating clothes, tents, backpacks, etc. One bottle is enough for 3 sq. m of fabric. It is sensitive to moisture and washing; accordingly, after each wash cycle, it is important to re-treat the equipment. When applying protection to gear, it is important to allow the spray to dry completely.
• Portable electric fumigator BaseCamp Max Repel will be useful not only for gardeners but also for tourists and fishermen. The fumigator has a built-in 9600mAh battery and works with repellent tablets. In addition, it can be used as a power bank.

Features of applying BaseCamp mosquito sprays and creams

Two of the most popular types of BaseCamp protection are BaseCamp DEET 50 spray and BaseCamp DEET 34% Cream. Their basis is DEET – an active substance that prevents mosquitoes and midges from detecting human scent. Thanks to different percentages of DEET, you can choose protection for both challenging conditions and regular outdoor recreation. Additionally, this allows for optimal protection for people with sensitive skin and children.

• BaseCamp DEET 50 comes in spray form. Its main advantage is even application to the skin. If you need to protect your face, it is best to apply it to your palms first, and then to your face. The downside of sprays is higher product consumption.
• BaseCamp DEET 34% Cream has a creamy form. It is applied to exposed skin areas. It is important to avoid the area around mucous membranes. The main advantage is economical consumption. After application, it is important to let the skin absorb the cream before going outdoors.

The portable electric fumigator Max Repel from the BaseCamp brand is ideal protection against mosquitoes and midges both at home and in nature. It is convenient to use at the dacha, camping, or while fishing. The fumigator will be indispensable when relaxing with children. One of the advantages of such fumigators is their portability. Thanks to its compact size and light weight (only 210 grams), you can take it anywhere – your hike, water recreation, or forest trip will now be comfortable and safe.
