Fed up with being bitten by pesky bugs, midges and mosquitos? Alfresco has the answer for keeping bugs at bay.

A study by the University of Reading’s School of Biological Sciences, recently showed that the changing climate and an increase in people using water butts has given rise to a growing number of mosquitoes in the UK, including species known to spread malaria and West Nile virus.

Alfresco’s Beauty Without Bites range of naturally perfumed insect repellents aims to deal with the onslaught of biting creatures during the summer and autumn months.

Containing no DEET, parabens, lanolin, dyes, sulphates or paraffin, the range is formulated using a combination of 22 essential oils including cinnamon, patchouli and cedarwood, and the products are safe for all ages.

The offer includes Alfresco Anti Bug Bite Moisturizer and Acqua d’Alfresco Anti Bug Bite Fragrance which come in a variety of sizes, as well as a Limited Edition Vacation Pack.
