The one I use contains diethyltoluamide. I use it in stick form, and it
works a charm against South African mozzies. I just keep it in my pocket
and rub it on as required. Certainly don't fancy impregnating my clothes
with pyrethrins, and citronella is a waste of time.
Just my $0.001. (Sorry, the value of the SA Rand aint worth much these days.)
