FAQs
Which Jungle Formula insect repellent should I choose for my destination?
Match the product to your destination and planned exposure time. Higher-risk travel may call for a higher-strength option, while lower-risk situations may suit a plant-based alternative. Always follow the label for age suitability and reapplication timing.
What’s the difference between Jungle Formula Maximum and Natural roll-ons?
Maximum focuses on high-strength repellent performance (often DEET-based), while Natural uses a plant-based approach (oil of lemon eucalyptus). The best choice depends on destination risk, skin sensitivity, and who will be using it—check the packaging directions carefully.
How do I apply insect repellent safely (especially on the face)?
Apply as directed to exposed skin only. For the face, spray onto hands first (not directly onto the face) and apply carefully, avoiding eyes and lips. Do not use on broken or irritated skin, and wash hands after application.
Can I use insect repellent with sunscreen?
In general, apply sunscreen first, let it absorb, then apply repellent to exposed skin. Follow both product labels and reapply only as instructed, particularly after swimming or heavy sweating.
Is a plug-in a good option for overnight protection?
A plug-in can be useful for indoor rooms, particularly in destinations where insects are active at night. Use it exactly as per the label, position it as recommended, and keep children’s safety and ventilation in mind.
What should I do after an insect bite or sting?
For minor bites and stings, you may consider an aftercare product such as Jungle Formula Bite & Sting Relief Spray. Seek medical advice if symptoms are worsening, widespread, or you feel unwell.
Do I need travel clinic advice as well as repellent?
Yes, for destinations with insect-borne disease risk, repellent is only one part of prevention. Check official travel health guidance and consider speaking to a pharmacist, travel clinic, or GP about vaccines and any antimalarial or prescription prevention that may be recommended for your itinerary.
Safety note: Always read and follow the label and packaging instructions for Jungle Formula products, including age guidance, how often to apply, and precautions. Repellents and after-bite products can cause irritation in some people. If you develop significant swelling, breathing difficulty, fever, a rapidly spreading rash, or other concerning symptoms after a bite or product use, seek urgent medical help.
