Care Plus has been a market leader in insect repellents in Europe for over 25 years. This respected brand is now available in Canada!

Icaridin, also known as Picaridin, is the active ingredient. It is a synthetic replica of the natural compound piperine, found in pepper plants. Developed by Bayer in the 1980s and used very successful in Europe, Icaridin first entered the U.S. market in 2005. It has been licensed in Canada since 2012.

Above all, Icaridin is highly effective in repelling biting insects while also being DEET-free, and gentle for the whole family.

12 hour protection against mosquitoes and ticks, and 10 hours against black flies. Studies show that Icaridin at a 20% concentration repels mosquitoes and ticks at least as well as DEET 30% and provides longer lasting protection.
