Description

Ballistol Sting‑Free Classic 8‑Hour Mosquito & Tick Repellent

Stay bite‑free and comfortable for up to 8 hours thanks to Ballistol’s proven Sting‑Free Classic (German name “Stichfrei”).
This skin‑friendly repellent was launched in 1973 and has been updated ever since. It protects adults and children from 2 years against mosquitoes —including tropical species such as Aedes “tiger” mosquitoes—, biting midges, horseflies, sand flies and ticks. The formula combines 20 % Icaridin (see explanation below) with nourishing plant oils for a pleasant lemon scent and a soft, hydrated skin feel.

Key Features

• Reliable protection for up to 8 h per application.
• Repels mosquitoes, midges, horseflies, ticks, tsetse flies & more.
• Icaridin 20 % – a modern active substance recommended by the WHO for malaria areas.
  What is Icaridin? Also called “Picaridin”, it is an odour‑free repellent that is gentle on skin and plastics yet highly effective against blood‑sucking insects.
• Dermatologically & allergologically rated “very good”.
• Moisturises the skin and prevents chill when you sweat or swim.
• Tested worldwide by expeditions (Brazilian jungle, Himalayas, African savannah…).
• Suitable during pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
  Recommended by the Riverboat Doctors International for malaria prevention in the Gambia.
