Testimonials
"RID really did work and I didn't get munched by mosquitoes or tse tse flies in Mana Pools (there were MILLIONS of them!)." Theresa Garrick, Okavango Tours & Safaris, Zimbabwe, Africa
"RID is quite simply the only insect repellent you should pack for your safari or adventure holiday! It has always been our mantra at The Safari Store to only stock the ultimate travel and safari products, products we choose to travel with as they are simply the best. We have been searching for some time now for the ultimate insect repellent. We knew all along what we were looking for, but did not believe that we would find a repellent that actually works against mosquitoes, but which also repels the Spitfire of the insect world, the tsetse fly." Steve Adams, The Safari Store, United Kingdom
RID Insect Repellents are sent by our government to Australian Embassies overseas." Department of Foreign Affairs & Trade, Australia
"RID is what Australian Noosa Footy team chooses for players' protection." Australian Noosa Footy Team, New South Wales, Australia
"RID is fantastic, I have used it for years in Botswana if anywhere near tsetse flies. It does not seem to have had any effect on my children (as yet) and it works for the mozzies too." Sarah Burrows, Bhangazi Horse Safaris, South Africa
"Hi Guys, I just wanted to let you know I was at the cricket all day Friday and all day Saturday, and that my RID sunblock meant I didn't get the slightest bit of burn." Pete Laurie, Creative Writer, Brisbane, Australia

Kindest regards, and many thanks." Gail Ferrier, Benalla, Australia

"Your product 'RID' is great stuff! We have a weekender on Russell Island, and this is the only repellent that works well against midges and mossies." Brent Haines, Russell Island, Australia
"This is the only product (Low Irritant) that is kind to my skin. As I have sensitive skin, this cream was okay and it worked perfectly." Hazel Petch, Palmerston, New Zealand
"The story here is that in my old age, if I get bitten or stung, then it is generally bad news! I swell up, high temperature, wheezy, usually not all at the same time though. The medics here just tell me to go to the chemist and buy Anti Histamine. My son spent a month in Cairns, and brought me back a can of RID plus antiseptic. It is brilliant, so much so that the instant I realize I might provide another meal for a Mossie, or whatever, I use your product to great effect." Peter Stonebridge, United Kingdom
"I purchased some RID tropical roll on whilst I was in Australia and found it to be a brilliant product. It is the only product that I have found in over 20 years that keeps me BITE FREE." Phil Masterton, United Kingdom
"My husband and I were in Australia several years ago and found
your insect repellent and love it." Nancy Bundy, United States
"RID has been part of the 'furniture' out here since I moved here in 1980, ask anyone in town what repellent to use and most will say RID. It is a reliable product which I as a nurse suggest to clients. I work as a nurse at the local medical centre as well and promote your product there also. I should also take this opportunity to thank you for sending the free samples last year when there was none in town.....it made a great difference to the students." Karen Brown, Registered Nurse, Queensland, Australia
"My name is Lars Flodmark, representing Skolopender AS, a Norwegian company offering services in environmental consultancy, education, GIS, and high-quality products for outdoor life. Ever since 1998 when I first got introduced to RID, I have been an avid user of this outstandingly efficient mosquito repellent. Here in Scandinavia we have our fair share of blood sucking critters during summer and at times conditions can get rather bad when black flies and mosquitoes muster in their billions. Thus, there are of course a range of products to keep blood suckers away, but my experience is that though most products in Scandinavia contain DEET as well, there is nothing like RID." Lars Flodmark, Biologist, Norway
"Regarding the RID, it is a yes yes yes from me. We all used it and while they pestered us quite a bit we did not get bitten where it was sprayed. I ended up spraying a lot on my shirts and shorts so we recommend it for anyone going to tsetse infested areas." Diana White, Okavango Tours & Safaris, after testing RID in the mosquito and tsetse fly heaven known as Katavi National Park, Tanzania
