For yourself use Repel 55 (you can buy from Amazon) it is incredible. I use it and don't get a single bite, and the wee buggers love to bite me. Not too sure about kids though sorry.

Avon skin so soft works for many people.

I thought they had changed the ingreadients to SSS and it was now less effective?

Autan tropical strength if you can get it.

OH is a midge magnet and if he even leaves so much as one square inch of skin insect repellent free the beast will find it and bite him. Not only that, mosquito bites always become infected so he has to cover up thoroughly.

Jungle Formula and Autan have always worked for him. Basically anything with high levels of deet in it.
