Travel Essentials

Planning your next adventure?

Whether it’s a winter sun escape, a gap-year journey or an early start on next summer’s plans, make sure your travel checklist includes protection that works, naturally.

This year, NHS data revealed a record rise in searches for insect bite and sting advice during the UK heatwaves, showing that biting insects are active for longer and in more destinations than ever before.

So whether you’re heading somewhere tropical or staying closer to home, being bite-free is the best kind of travel insurance.

 

Year-round protection for every destination

From long-haul adventures to European breaks, our range is clinically proven to protect against mosquitoes, midges, ticks and other biting insects — naturally and sustainably.

Because protection shouldn’t end when summer does.

What's Biting and When?

Think biting insects disappear when summer ends? Not quite. As global temperatures rise, mosquitoes and midges are active for longer - both here in the UK and across popular winter-sun destinations.

From humid jungles to coastal resorts, warm and wet conditions create the perfect breeding grounds for mosquitoes. So whether you’re travelling for sunshine or adventure, protection is still essential all year round.

Your protection routine

Follow our simple, four-part protection routine from cleansing and prepping your skin, to keeping bites away day and night.

Don't Forget Ticks

Ticks aren’t just a summer concern - they’re active year-round in grassy and wooded areas across the UK and Europe. If your travels include hiking, safaris or nature trails, learn how to prevent bites and stay safe outdoors.

Avoid tick bites with this simple acronym: T.I.C.K. 

Insect and Disease Information

The NHS report highlights just how common bites have become in the UK. Around the world, mosquito-borne illnesses like dengue and malaria still affect millions of travellers every year.

Stay informed, stay protected - a small step that makes a big difference.
