DEET Danger is Boosting Sales of incognito

incognitoAfter last week’s report published in the open access British-based journal BioMed Central Biology, illustrating how DEET works in the same way as paralysing nerve gases used in warfare, people are clearing the shelves of natural alternatives and incognito is struggling to meet demand. Several outlets, like Harrods, have sold out completely and the company is finding it hard keeping the products on the shelves. Overall sales are fivefold up from this time last year!

incognito is a scientifically proven natural anti-insect spray that is very effective for avoiding all insect bites and stings. It has a fresh, pleasant smell and is non-greasy. It is very popular.

incognito founder Howard Carter has been concerned about the neurotoxic effects DEET has upon mammals for some time and even mentioned it two weeks ago on BBC 2 as, “being controversial at best”, on Dragons’ Den. Even before the report had been published and the Den, incognito had experienced high demand for their natural, organic Java citronella-based anti-insect products, which work by disguising the wearer’s kairomones from mosquitoes and other biting or stinging insects.  The range includes their signature spray, as well as after sun moisturiser, shampoo, soaps and incense sticks, and a range of the best mosquito nets, and are suitable for use anywhere in the world, including jungles.The French scientists also discovered DEET is interacting with other common chemicals thus causing even more toxic effects, and are calling for further research. Says Howard, “If someone had Deet on their skin, then ate an unwashed apple that had been sprayed with an insecticide (which most are) then the toxic effects of both substances are multiplied, which could be disastrous. Mosquitoes and other insects are now proving a real problem here in the UK because of warmer temperatures, and slathering neurotoxins on our bodies is not the answer, particularly where young children and babies are concerned. Apart from melting plastics, DEET has been held in question for several decades and has also been implicated in cases of Gulf War Syndrome.”

incognito offers an effective, safe alternative, has been rigorously tested by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine and rated by them to be as strong as the majority of DEET preparations. incognito products have also been endorsed by many reputable journalists, travellers and celebrities including travellers Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman, Elle Macpherson and Davina McCall. All incognito products have multiple uses e.g. the spray is also an anti-bacterial and the loofah soap moisturises, keeps insects at bay and the organic loofah (Inside the soap!) polishes and conditions the skin.

incognito spray is widely available in chemists as well as Harrods – in Knightsbridge as well as Heathrow and Gatwick, Holland & Barrett, Whole Foods, most health food shops and John Bell & Croydon, and can be bought on line at www.lessmosquito.com RRP £8.99 for 100 ml.
