Aedes albopictus

 

It has a black body with white stripes. Extremely adaptable, versatile and aggressive, it is active even in broad daylight. It preferentially attacks humans, causing annoying bites and irritation.

Culex pipiens


 
Inconspicuous, mainly active during the evening/night. It is attracted to particular odors, light and CO2. It feeds on the blood of humans and other mammals.

THE RAPID DIFFUSION OF TIGER MOSQUITOS IN ITALY HAS LED TO AN INCREASED RISK OF BEING BITTEN AND INFECTED WITH VIRUSES such as the Dengue virus, West Nile virus or Zika virus, capable of causing severe disease in animals and people.

Ledum palustre T.M.

 

The mother tincture obtained from the leaves of this plant is rich in flavonoids (quercetin), coumarins, sesquitriterpene alcohols, monoterpenealiphatic alcohols, responsible for its camphor-like perfume, and is a valuable essential oil. These all give it the ability to make the skin on which it is applied unattractive to mosquitoes and insects.

Geranium O.E. (Pelargonium graveolens)

 

The essential oil obtained from the leaves and stalks of Geranium is rich in terpenes such as geraniol, citronellol and others, making it particularly unpleasant for insects, but not for humans.

Eucalyptus (Eucalyptus globulus)


 
The main component of the essential oil obtained from its leaves is cineole (or "eucalyptol"), combined with pinene, limonene, terpinene and other compounds. When applied locally, it is particularly repellant to insects and mosquitoes, while being harmless and causing no sensitizing effects to humans.
 


Nutmeg (Myristica fragrans)


Its distinctive flavor and odor are due to the presence of an aromatic oil rich in monocyclic tertiary alcohols, which give it an insect-repellent effect.

 

Coconut oil (cocos nucifera)


 
A plant-based oil that serves as a true functional ingredient, included in topical formulations to slow the evaporation of essential oils, thus enabling them to remain on the skin for longer.

Basil Essential Oil (Ocimum basilicum)

 

The essential oil obtained from its leaves has repellent properties against insects and particularly mosquitoes. It has a highly variable composition, containing linalool, methylcavicol estragole, camphor, eugenol, ocimene, cineole, pinene, sesquiterpenes and phenylpropanes.

Citronella O.E. (Cymbopogon nardus)


 
The aromatic essential oil obtained from its leaves is widely known for its insect-repellent properties. The main constituents are geraniol and citronellol, but also citronellal, camphene, borneol and methyleugenol.

Bisabololo (extracted from matricaria chamomilla)

 

A natural sesquiterpene alcohol and the main component of Chamomile essential oil, with marked mollifying, calming, soothing and anti-reddening properties. When used topically, it is particularly suitable for the most sensitive and delicate skin, as it also has very high skin tolerability.

Marigold (Calendula officinalis)


An extract obtained from the dried flowers, rich in resins, fatty acids, salicylic acid, saponins, carotenoids (including calendulin), pentacyclic triterpenes, flavonoids, immunostimulating polysaccharides, phytosterols and mucilages, which have notable anti-inflammatory, nourishing and skin-protective properties.


 
Natural vitamin E (Tocopherol)


 
Vitamin E of natural origin is a highly fat-soluble compound which is able to penetrate to the deepest layers of the skin, promoting the absorption of the other active ingredients contained in the formulation. Vitamin E has the specific ability to protect the skin from attacks by free radicals generated by cell metabolism (as well as by sunlight and external agents); it is also hydrating, anti-inflammatory, soothing and re-epithelializing, thus it is suitable for a topical formulation specifically intended for treating itching and redness caused by mosquito bites.
