Overview of P-Menthane-3,8-Diol

 

P-Menthane-3,8-Diol (PMD) comes from lemon eucalyptus oil and is a natural, EPA-approved insect repellent. It protects against mosquitoes, ticks, and biting flies for up to 6 hours. PMD works as well as DEET, has a fresh lemon scent, and leaves no oily feel, making it a good choice for family use.
