Frequently asked questions
Does Jungle Formula contain DEET?
Some Jungle Formula products contain DEET, a very effective repellent often shown as a strength such as Maximum, while others are DEET-free for those who prefer it. Check the front of the specific pack, which shows whether and how much DEET it contains.
Does Jungle Formula expire or go out of date?
Yes, like most toiletries it has a shelf life, usually shown by a period-after-opening symbol such as 12M or a date on the pack. An old repellent may not protect as well, so replace it if it is past its best.
Does Jungle Formula repel wasps?
Jungle Formula is designed to repel biting insects such as mosquitoes, midges and ticks rather than wasps, which are drawn to food and drink rather than put off by these products. It will not reliably keep wasps away.
Can you use Jungle Formula when pregnant?
Repellents containing DEET are generally considered suitable in pregnancy when used as directed, and protecting against bites matters, especially where diseases such as malaria are a risk. If you are pregnant, check the specific product's label and ask your pharmacist, midwife or a travel clinic for advice.
Can you use Jungle Formula on dogs?
No - insect repellents made for people, especially those containing DEET, should not be used on dogs, as they can be toxic to pets if licked or absorbed. Ask your vet for a repellent or flea-and-tick product that is safe for your dog.
Can you use Jungle Formula with sunscreen?
Yes, but apply your sunscreen first, let it absorb, then apply the repellent over the top. Bear in mind repellent can reduce a sunscreen's SPF, so you may need to reapply your sun protection more often.
