There are two scientific reports that show just how effective a mosquito repellent incognito is. Testing carried out by both Chemian Technology and the Insect Research and Development (IR&D Ltd.) have conclusively verified the efficacy of incognito’s active ingredient, Citrepel 75 (or Eucalyptus maculata citridora) as an incredibly effective insect repellent.

With record numbers of midges expected in the Scottish Highlands this summer following the cold winter and mild spring tourists are being warned to take extra precautions to avoid being bitten.
The peak season for the Highland Midge is between June and August and experts estimate there could be as many as 800 times the average level of midges this year as recent conditions have been ideal for the Highland Midge or Culicodies Impunctatus.

When Howard first approached GREEN Communications to look after incognito’s public relations little did he know how much we had in common. We both have a common interest in competitive sport – Howard an avid table tennis player and I’m nuts about rowing – and, more importantly, we have both been bitten by mosquitoes and we have both caught malaria. I still suffer from an attack once a year – which usually means a week in bed with high temperatures, sweating and shivering and closing myself off to the world.
