How do insect repellent socks work?

When you’re spending time outdoors - whether traveling, camping, hiking, or simply enjoying the day - many insects like mosquitoes and ticks can be more than just a nuisance. They can carry diseases and pose health risks, making protection essential. While there are many ways to guard against insect bites, such as sprays and lotions, these methods aren’t always practical or completely effective, especially for prolonged outdoor activities.


That’s where insect-repellent socks come in. These specialized socks are treated with active ingredients that help keep mosquitoes, ticks, and other insects away. Unlike sprays, they provide a constant, comfortable barrier directly on your skin.


A perfect example of this innovative solution are the SAFERSOX insect-repellent socks.
The integrated anti-tick & mosquito protection technology ensures that you can concentrate on your activities without interruption.

These socks provide a valuable extra layer of protection, especially on safaris or outdoor adventures where insect bites are common.
Treated with a non-toxic ingredient called EBAAP, these socks have demonstrated up to 83% effectiveness in lab tests, significantly reducing the risk of bites. They stay effective even after many washes – up to 80 cycles - just wash at 40°C without fabric softener for optimal durability.


Whether in rainy, cold, or hot days, these socks are the smart choice for comfort, safety, and peace of mind.
