How to use incognito products?

incognito can be used by the whole family, it is even ok for babies over 6 months and those with ultra-sensitive skin provided a patch test is carried out first.  These are the recommended suggestions for maximum protection. Where insects are less of a problem or you rarely get bitten then you can take less of these precautions.

To use: Shake bottle, hold the bottle 6 inches away from skin or clothing to be sprayed. Hold breath to avoid sneezing and then spray on all exposed skin and clothing.  After spraying onto skin, pat the area – especially if you are asthmatic or have any other respiratory problems. On average incognito anti mosquito spray will give you at least 5 hours of good protection. Spray as frequently as required depending on the individual and the intensity of the insects present. It is a good idea to spray yourself whilst naked ideally after washing with an incognito soap, shower gel (3 in 1 shampoo is also a shower gel.) or loofah soap and then, after dressing, spray your clothing as well. For extra protection apply incognito after sun moisturiser first  -use like any other moisturiser.

On average, one adult will use one bottle of incognito anti-insect spray per week. We do strongly suggest you take a spare bottle with you, especially when going to places where insect-bourne diseases are present and you cannot buy more. For children, half a bottle per week should suffice.

Because of incognito’s strength, a very small percentage of users, usually those with hypersensitive skin may develop an irritation to the product. If this could be you, then we suggest you do a “patch-test”, spraying a small area of the body (e.g. the inside of your wrist) to see if any reaction occurs or alternatively, just use incognito on the outside of your clothing. Always patch test babies and children. If a baby is younger than 6 months you could still spray clothing.

Although to most people the following advice is obvious we still need to point out: do not spray incognito into your eyes (or anybody else’s) and to avoid contact with the entire eye area. Apply on face, neck, head and ears by spraying incognito onto your hand and patting the solution onto these vulnerable areas. incognito should be applied both night and day. You will need to reapply incognito after swimming, washing and during periods of excessive perspiration.

NB. It is imperative to sleep under a mosquito net at night (preferably impregnated) as no topical repellent or  application will protect you when you sleep, not even a deadly insecticide – which could also poison you!” Many plug-ins and nearly all mosquito coils emit toxic vapors that can cause serious health problems, so it is advisable not to have these on when humans are in any enclosed space. Always read the label thoroughly. An LLI mosquito net is the only sure-fire way of not getting bitten during the night. Our spray is clinically proven to protect against malaria when used in conjunction with an impregnated mosquito net. Even if you are staying in upmarket accommodation you need to check that impregnated nets are provided. Be especially wary of claims like, “there are no mosquitoes here”! As many hotel staff have been ordered to say things like this! If you are traveling for awhile & visiting malarial zones then pack an LLI -they are lightweight and take up very little room when folded.

incognito should be applied over sun lotions or any other applications.  In extreme conditions e.g. an area of intense insect activity – like a malaria-infested jungle it is still a good idea to use more incognito products. This is also the case if you are especially attractive to insects or a mosquito magnet;  also read Avoiding Insect Bites.

You can also spray incognito around doors, on netting and window frames to keep out unwanted visitors.

incognito citronella incense sticks along with our other products can be used in conjunction with the spray to stop insects buzzing around you.

>Use the luxury loofah soap every 2-3 days. Exfoliating is the only way to remove all the dirt from the skin pores, bacteria feed off this detritus and excrete a powerful kairomone (attractant to insects).

>The other incognito soaps can be used all the time and should be carried with you when you’re out and about in the provided saa box, so that you do not need to use any other soap – which may well be attractive to insects. Remember to reapply incognito spray on the back of your hands after any washing.

Talking of washing,  the incognito 3 in 1 shampoo, conditioner and protector also works as a shower gel -use it from head to toe- just a little is needed as a little goes a long way. This is an essential item for those on longer trips. It also helps to keep fungal infections at bay.

You can use the organic Java citronella oil by diluting at least 1 to 6 before applying to skin. It can be used in any oil diffusers or burners. Add to base oil for massage or bathing. It can also be added to any cream, shampoo, etc. which will turn it into an insect repellent. Top up incognito or any other natural insect repellent for greater efficacy. Add a few drops to your clothes or luggage to keep them smelling fresh and unwanted small visitors away.

Larger persons tend to attract more mosquitoes because of their greater surface area of skin and more cells, they emit more kairomones – every individual skin cell produces CO2, lactic acid, heat, etc. So if you fall into this category you will not only need to be extra vigilant, you will probably need to reapply incognito more frequently and we recommend that you use other incognito products such as our moisturiser, soaps (especially the loofah), sticks, pure organic Java citronella oil and 3 in 1 shampoo to be on the safe side. At the very least you will need one of the filled travel bags.

The thread from the bottle neck can come loose in transit so a firm twist is advisable – especially if you plan to take it in a pressurised environment like any jet plane. It is a good idea to keep the spray wrapped up in a plastic bag which can then be reused to store dirty clothing.

Use insect repellents safely.  Always read the label and product information before use.em>
