DEET, also known as N, N-diethyl methylaminotoluene, can effectively block the special neurons on the mosquito's antennae, making it lose the ability to distinguish human or animal body odor. Mosquito repellent containing DEET Agents are used in various places. DEET is a nearly colorless liquid with a faint unique odor.
DEET was developed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) in 1946 for use in the US military. It was not until 1957 that this liquid was used by ordinary people. Today, DEET has become a personal mosquito repellent that can be used directly on the skin. It can be used by both adults and children if it is used in accordance with the label's instructions.
The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends the use of mosquito repellents containing the active ingredients DEET and Picaridin. CDC stated that DEET can provide effective and reliable protection against mosquitoes. In addition, if you use it in accordance with the label instructions, you can safely use mosquito repellents containing DEET.
What is the mosquito repellent principle of DEET?DEET is an active ingredient contained in many mosquito repellent formulations. Think of the mosquito repellent as a radar jammer. People exhale carbon dioxide (CO2), the smell of this gas attracts a variety of insects, including adult female mosquitoes. Mosquito repellents can affect the odor receptors of biting mosquitoes, making them difficult to identify.
Generally speaking, the more DEET contained in mosquito repellent, the longer the insect repellent effect will last. However, a higher concentration of active ingredients does not mean that the product can effectively repel mosquitoes. Products with a higher concentration of DEET are more suitable for activities that stay longer in outdoor mosquito breeding grounds, while products with a lower concentration are suitable for activities that only stay outdoors for a few hours.
