🌿 Nature’s Answer to Chemical Repellents
Citriodiol® is what gives Camo® its strength — but what makes this natural ingredient so effective?
Let’s break down the science behind your favourite DEET-free repellent.
🌱 What Exactly Is Citriodiol®?
Citriodiol® is the trade name for p-menthane-3,8-diol (PMD), a naturally occurring compound derived from the lemon eucalyptus tree (Corymbia citriodora).
It’s refined through a simple distillation process, creating a pure, stable, and highly active repellent that performs as well as — and often better than — DEET.
🧪 How It Works
Mosquitoes locate humans using body heat, carbon dioxide, and scent.
Citriodiol® masks these signals by interfering with the insect’s olfactory receptors, essentially making you invisible to them.

Science and sustainability can coexist. Citriodiol® is proof that nature can be both gentle and strong — and it’s what makes Camo® different.
