Nature's own natural insect repellent that works! 

 

MR MOZZIE Insect Repellent spray contains no DEET or other harmful pesticides and all our products are made in the UK to ensure the highest quality, scientifically proven to offer effective protection for up to 6 hours!

 

With a light, citrus scent, MR MOZZIE leaves skin feeling fresh with a pleasant odour and is the perfect product to take on holiday.

​​

​Our repellents can be used by all the family including young babies from 6 months onwards. They are also safe for pregnant women. Children's skin can be extremely sensitive and vulnerable to damage, so it requires particular protection and shielding from harmful ingredients.

​

All MR MOZZIE products contain Citrepel® 75 at 15%. Naturally derived, Citrepel® 75 is a highly effective insect repellent and is the only product on the market in this higher-grade form. Produced from natural essential oils, Citrepel® is very high in PMD, a powerful active ingredient shown to be effective against a broad spectrum of insects and is recommended by WHO and NHS. Unlike most natural repellents, higher percentages of PMD result in a significant increase in efficacy.

 

Citrepel® 75 meets the ecological and organic cosmetic standards outlined by ECOCERT, registered under the Biocidal Products Directive (BPR) and is certified as a product of natural origin.

MR MOZZIE Sustainably sourced

 

The active Java Citronella Oil that we use in our products is a natural replacement for DEET. It is most commonly grown in Java, Indonesia and other south east Asian countries on fields in the mountains and the hillsides. The fields where this grass grows are not suitable for growing any other crops, and therefore this natural product serves as a lifeline for the independent families that work and farm these crops.Three times a year, when the crops are ready, the families take in the crops and extract the oil from the plants right on the hillside where the grass is grown at its freshest retaining maximum actives in the oil extract during the process.

 

When Citronella grass is harvested (cut down to the roots) and put into cages, it then goes through a steam distillation process. This extracts the oil which is the raw material the active ingredient PMD is derived from.

 

The remaining grass and plant matter is composted down and used to refertilize the land to feed the growth of the next crops. These crops can be grown and harvested three times each year, on land that no one else could use - helping to create jobs for indigenous farmers who otherwise wouldn’t be able to use this land due to its unique geography.

 

Once the oil arrives in the UK, our uniquely formulated products are created and produced in the north of England. As our formulation is from such a refined product, we are able to formulate an emulsion product without the need for alcohol and other chemicals which allows MR MOZZIE products to have a much cleaner natural formulation, therefore manufacturing a kinder product to both the end user and the environment.
