AUSTRALIAN TRAVEL DIRECTORY | BUSINESS DIRECTORY

I created Good Riddance Insect Repellent while living in Darwin, after travelling around Australia with my family. I wanted to protect us from mozzies and midges but was worried about using DEET-based chemical repellents on a daily basis. I tried natural repellents but found they didn't work for very long, felt greasy and smelt awful!

I saw a huge gap in the insect repellent market and studied a Diploma in Personal Care Formulation so I could create a repellent my family was happy to use every day. I spent two years developing and testing the products with local fishermen in the most mozzie and midge-prone areas of the Top End, including Shady Camp, a notorious mozzie (and croc) infested billabong on the way out to Kakadu. Our two natural insect repellents provide long lasting protection, smell amazing, and feel nice on your skin, even in the tropics.
