Natural Patches Insect Repellent Patch (pack of 5)

Each Insect Repellent Patch contains 75mg of Thiamine, a natural vitamin, this works with the bodies own chemistry to create an invisible barrier that shields from biting insects. Thiamine is very hard to obtain through a balanced diet as the cooking process destroys most of the vitamin. The body typically needs less than 2mg of Thiamine per day for a healthy diet; excess Thiamine is passed through the urine, breath and skin, the latter being important.

The Insect Repellent Patch is ideal for holidays, fishing, gardening, BBQ's, Picnics and all outdoor activies.

Q. How much protection does each patch provide? Each patch provides 36 hours protection, thus a packet of 2 patches gives a total of 72 hours protection – ideal for a weekend camping, fishing or in the garden. A packet of 10 provides 15 days protection – ideal for a fortnight’s holiday.

Q. Can the patches be worn when pregnant? No – although the patches are 100% natural and only contain Vitamin B1 Thiamine we are not aware of any tests that have been carried out thus our directions for use are that they should only be used on by children aged one and above.

Q. How do the patches work? They are a method of administering Vitamin B1 Thiamine. They act as a reservoir

Q. How much Vitamin B1 does each patch contain? Each patch contains 75mg of thiamine. This is far greater than the RDA amount of 1.5mg. This is because the purpose of the patch is to provide the body with more Thiamine than it needs so that it then naturally gets rid of the excess thiamine through normal perspiration.

Q. If my body has to get rid of the excess thiamine will I perspire more?No

Q. Do the patches give off any odour – or will I give off any odour as my body gets rid of the excess thiamine.  No – not noticeable by humans but noticeable by insects and they don’t like it!
