Talk:Insect repellent

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What about the plug in type? I don't see them at all in the USA are they illegal here or what? They seem to very popular in the UK and elsewhere

[edit] Permethrin - repellent??

I'm not sure if permethrin could be considered a repellent because its actual mode action is by killing the insect, not via repelling per DEET and citronella etc. John Moss 23:42, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

What about alletrine?

Allethrine has been proved to be one of the most efficient repellents - if not the most effective. <
