Natural sprays often rely on citronella, lemongrass, or essential oils. While these can provide short-term relief, they typically last only 30–90 minutes before reapplication is required—making them unsuitable for professional or remote work where long-term coverage is essential.
For further information on repellent efficacy and safe DEET use, refer to the NZ Ministry of Health – Mosquito-Borne Diseases Guidance.
