The most effective mosquito repellents contain the active ingredients DEET (N, N-diethyl-m-toluamide), Picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus offering long-lasting protection against mosquito bites. These products come in lotions, creams, gels, sprays, and towelettes. Mosquito repellents must be used properly. Read and follow instructions on the label. Do not over use repellents.
