Nature's insect repellent

Camo is steam distilled from the oil of the Eucalyptus citriodora tree and enhanced through a simple conversion process that accelerates nature’s own maturation of the citriodora leaf.

The Eucalyptus citriodora oil is enriched into Citriodiol® by converting the naturally occurring citronellal (not to be confused with the far less effective citronella) into p-methane-3,8-diol (PMD). 

The Sciency Bit

  • The Eucalyptus Citriodora Oil is enriched into Citriodiol® by converting the naturally occurring citronellal into p-methane-3,8-diol (PMD), the CAMO® formula.
  • This dramatically increases the level of repellency of the oil.
  • Making it far superior to standard essential oils.
  • The higher the PMD = The higher the repellency factor.

Essential Oils V Camo Formula

  • Our converted Oil of Lemon Ecualyptus (OLE) contains 71% more active repellent compound.
  • Compared to 4% of that of unconverted OLE.
  • CAMO® is 32x stronger than standard essential oils.
  • Providing protection for up to 11 hours against common mosquitos (Culex).
