Nothing disrupts a summer evening or a walk in nature quite like the constant threat of biting insects. The discomfort of (tropical) mosquitoes and biting flies can not only cause irritation but also bring your outdoor activities to an early end. The Heltiq Anti-mosquito spray offers a powerful shield without the use of DEET, keeping you and your family protected against unwanted bites.
- Provides up to 6 hours of long-lasting protection against common and tropical mosquitoes.
- Effectively protects for up to 4 hours against the annoying bites of biting flies.
- Contains 0% DEET, making the spray suitable for those who prefer alternative active ingredients.
- Immediate action right after application to exposed skin.
How it works
This spray uses Saltidin® (Icaridin) in a concentration of 20%. This ingredient is known for its ability to disrupt the scent receptors of insects, preventing them from recognising human skin as a target. It is a responsible alternative to DEET that offers effective protection in both temperate and tropical climates, without damaging the skin or materials as some other products do.

Usage & Dosage
Use HeltiQ Anti-mosquito spray just before contact with (tropical) mosquitoes or biting flies is expected. Apply HeltiQ Anti-mosquito spray evenly to exposed body parts. Avoid spraying on eyes and mouth. For treatment of the face and neck: spray a small amount onto the palm of your hand and spread it over the skin. HeltiQ Anti-mosquito spray protects for 6 hours against (tropical) mosquitoes and 4 hours against biting flies (based on 100% protection). Hold the spray can 10 to 15 cm from the skin while spraying, keeping the nozzle away from your face. Treat the skin with a slow sweeping motion. Protection starts immediately after application. Use the spray only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Due to health risks, apply HeltiQ Anti-mosquito spray a maximum of once per day.
