Deet - Deet Insect Repellent By OFF! ®

DEET is the active chemical ingredient in most insect repellents available in the United States.
It is used to repel such biting pests as mosquitoes and ticks-including ticks that may carry Lyme disease.
DEET was registered in the U.S. for the general public to use in 1957.

Generally, the higher the percentage of DEET, the longer the repellent works.
Higher concentrations of DEET are recommended for activities that keep you outside all day in geographic regions with large populations of insects and ticks.
Lower concentrations are acceptable when you are planning to be outdoors for only a few hours.
