Greenhead
Lasts Longer!
In
a study done by the New
England Journal of Medicine, products like Greenhead
were shown to
highly effective at protecting against insect bites.
Their
study showed "that only products containing DEET offer
long-lasting protection after a single application."
Based on their findings, Greenhead beats ALL of the following:
OFF!, Cutters, Skin-So-Soft, Buzz Away, Repello Wristband,
Gone Wristband.
Skin-So-Soft Bath Oil, which consumers commonly claim has
a repellent effect on insects, provided LESS THAN 10 minutes
of protection in their study!!! Wristband type repellents
lasted for less than 1 minute!!!

"Finally...an
answer to the dreaded Insects"-
Atlantic City Weekly
Why
is GreenHead the best insect repellent you can buy? Not
only is it more effective, it's safer too. GreenHead contains
30% of the EPA approved and recommended active ingredient
for repelling insects - much more than the competition.
So, in the same size bottle, you get up to four times as
much "repellent" and less "other stuff".
The "other stuff" is important too- Instead of
being mixed with alcohol (like most other popular brands),
we use water instead of alcohol, which not only makes it
safer to use, but much more effective and longer lasting!
Most
insect repellents work when you first put them on, but they
start to evaporate immediately, losing effectiveness in just
a few minutes. DAK Pharmaceuticals has really shaken up the
industry by replacing the alcohol with water which is not
only safer, but makes it work better. Because water does not
evaporate as quickly as alcohol, dermal absorption is reduced
and more "repellent" is left on your skin! Thus,
the need to frequently reapply the repellent is greatly reduced
and it works much longer.
Alcohol
also creates a strong aroma providing the traditional "insect
repellent" smell. Some people are very sensitive to this aroma.
The water-based formula isn't as strong smelling and much
more pleasant to wear.
THE
SAME INSECT REPELLENT THAT THE ATLANTIC CITY LIFEGUARDS USE!
To
protect their lifeguards from the deadly West Nile Virus
caused by insect bites, the municipality of Atlantic City,
NJ gives GreenHead brand Fly and Insect Repellent to each
of their 180 lifeguards. Why? Because it works better,
lasts longer, and is safer to use. In short, because it's
the best.
Because
GreenHead is so effective, there is no need to keep reapplying.
Use just enough to cover exposed skin and apply to clothing
(You can spray it onto clothing to repel ticks and fleas).
GreenHead
products are just beginning to be distributed nationally and
around the world through leading sporting goods, drug, grocery
and discount stores or you can buy on-line now. Use Greenhead
Insect Repellent once, and you will be protected all day.
