ST. LOUIS, MO-For the past few years families have become familiar with the latest development in insect repellent innovation, Cutter® All Family Mosquito Wipes. These handy wipes provide the same effective protection as traditional mosquito repellent sprays, but offer many advantages. In a recent survey of over 250 repellent users, the Mosquito Wipes were found to provide many benefits over aerosol and pump sprays. Consumers like Mosquito Wipes because wipes provide better control when applying repellents, reducing concerns of inhalation and spraying in the eyes. Because of the control advantage, consumers believe wipes are an easier, faster way to safely apply insect repellent, especially when applying to children. One respondent commented "it's safer and easier to apply", while another stated "it's easier and faster to apply, and will cover areas you may miss (with a spray)."
This year, families have even more to be excited about with the newly introduced longer-lasting Backwoods Cutter Mosquito Wipes. While the All Family Wipes are appropriate for most common outdoor activities, repelling mosquitoes for up to two hours, the Backwoods Wipes are ideal for active families that spend many hours outdoors. The Backwoods Wipes repel mosquitoes for up to 8 Hours in areas of heavy mosquito activity, providing all-day protection plus all the advantages of the easy-to-use wipe.
The Mosquito Wipes allow controlled application to sensitive areas such as the face and neck, and enable coverage of other hard-to-reach areas such as the back of legs. Mosquito Wipes are available in a convenient 20 count re-sealable snap-shut canister, making it easy to take insect repellent anywhere you go.
All Family and Backwoods Cutter Mosquito Wipes are formulated with DEET, the active ingredient reported by the New England Journal of Medicine as most effective for repelling mosquitoes.
Both All Family and Backwoods Cutter Mosquito Wipes are available now at mass merchants, grocery stores, drug stores and home centers nationwide.
