Thank you for a most effective product that walks the talk! "Late May in the Tug Hill area...north of Syracuse. I was on a hike and float tube fishing trip...This environment is normally misery for me. Stinging insects of all kinds pick me out of a crowd... my reaction when bitten is more severe than most people...I've tried every product...with limited results. Until now. Dressed in a long-sleevedBuzz Off Insect Shield shirt and cap...The only bites I got were from the trout!...Now for the amazing part...my float tube, I found deer and horse flies all over it...Being dark green and giving off heat in the afternoon sun, the tube was serving as a potent attractant. I moved slowly to the tube and...the bugs dispersed. I moved away; they immediately returned. Again, I moved close. They left...Amazing and nothing less thanwonderful for this bug-bitten backwoods fisherman. Thank you for a most effective product that walks the talk!" Favorite(Thing) : Really(works!)

Buzz Off Insect Shield Launches Insect Shield® Brand to Highlight Introduction of 70 Washings Technology
SEATTLE, WA – Buzz Off Insect Shield announces the launch of their enhanced insect-repellent apparel technology under the new Insect Shield® brand. Recently, the firm communicated that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) granted them a sought-after amendment to their insect-repellent clothing registration. Insect Shield apparel is now EPA registered to provide effective insect protection through seventy washings, almost three times the initial claim of twenty five washings achieved in July 2003. All apparel on the market for spring 2008 will be marketed under the newly launched Insect Shield® brand and offer the increased repellency durability of seventy washings.
Buzz Off Insect Shield is currently working with international development and relief organizations to promote the insect repellent technology as a tool for preventing insect-borne diseases. The Insect Shield brand name and improved technology support these efforts as well.
“The enhanced Insect Shield technology has the potential to greatly impact worldwide health by offering durable and effective solutions to people whose lives are impacted by insect-borne diseases,” says Jason Griffin, Buzz Off Insect Shield Executive Vice President. “Our new brand name succinctly explains the protective aspect of our technology and the improved technology provides greater value for our partners and consumers.”
