SCRIPT: Lifestyles, I’m Matt Kelly. This summer you may have a battle with insects on your hands. Dr. John Randall of SC Johnson’s Entomology Research Center believes insect repellents are an important weapon against bugs.

CUT: (Randall) There are many questions out there about insect repellents, specifically those with the ingredient DEET. It’s important to know that DEET is very effective and among the most studied insect repellents available.

SCRIPT: A study published in The New England Journal of Medicine found that repellents with DEET provide the most complete protection against mosquitoes for the longest duration among repellents tested.

CUT: (Randall) You can combat mosquitoes with new products like OFF! Deep Woods Towelettes, which contain DEET. Additionally, area repellents such as OFF! Powerpad Mosquito Lamps and Lanterns use a highly effective active ingredient to protect backyards and other areas against mosquitoes.
