Smidge REPELLENT 75ML 8 HOUR MIDGE & BITING INSECT PROTECTION-2 Pack

It is the best repellent, smells quite nice and not greasy. That said in Scotland in summer nothing can fully repel midges enough as they still come close and will go for any tiny patch of skin they can access which doesn't have it on. They will go for hair and behind ears and neck. Use this in conjunction with a midge coat. It works in a garden situation but out in the hills last weekend the only solution was to pile into courrour bothy and close the door. Still love Smidge and bought 2 more bottles

Great product does what it says and has no nasty smell

I live in North Yorkshire and thought the midges here were bad. Alas, an unscheduled trip to Ayrshire last summer showed me that the midges south of the border are disorganised and ineffectual compared to the vicious onslaught of the Scottish ones we encountered at Loch Doon.Locals recommended we buy Smidge, the only thing they rated to keep the bitey w** f***ers at bay, but it sells out in the shops quite quickly in summer. Every inch of bare flesh we had was testament to the midges’ voracious attack.So this summer, when we returned to Loch Doon, I made sure we were prepared. We covered every last bit of skin with either clothing or Smidge and, despite the clouds of midges that descended upon our little group, we successfully managed to eat a picnic without injury or the subsequent red bumps and itches of the previous year.With that said, even with Smidge on your skin, the little sods will go for your scalp if you leave it either uncovered or un-Smidged. While copious amounts of product in your hair may be effective, it’s not a great look, so make sure to have a hat to hand to supplement your protection.A can of this stuff is now always in the boot of the car, ready for any outings into the countryside. It may not be the cheapest insect repellent out there, but it works brilliantly well on the midges we were dodging. Well worth spending a bit more in my view to avoid days of itching and irritation.

Not the 1st time I have ordered this product and it won't be the last. For me personally it works, smells and feels pleasant on the skin, and unlike some insect repellent, it doesn't make you feel like you've been gassed!

Good value

Love this product! I only get bitten where I don’t spray it! It smells nice and the smell where’s off. It doesn’t stain my clothes. It leaves my skin feeling so soft!

Have used this product for some years now especially in Scotland. Very effective against 'the wee beasties.

I used this for the 1st time in Greece last September and it was amazing. I never even had one bite on me. I usually have at least half a dozen bites.I have bought some more to be ready for this year's holidays.
