Why typical natural insect repellents have short protection time? : "The effect of most plant-based insect repellents only lasts from several minutes to several hours due to their highly volatile active ingredients, so although they are effective repellents for a short period after application, they rapidly evaporated leaving the user unprotected. The exception to SOVOS Bioactive Insect Repellent has a lower vapour pressure that provides very high protection over 8 hours prolonging repellency time and a broad range of insect repelling vectors.
" SOVOS follows strict herbal apothecary in selecting ONLY the finest therapeutic grade botanical species from the right soils around the globe in delivering the best fit and most effective synergistic formulas on a personal level."
