Insect repellent. Not an insecticide.
SAFERSOX anti-tick and mosquito repellent socks use a biodegradable active ingredient designed to repel mosquitoes and ticks without killing them. The active ingredient EBAAP (ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate), which has been used in insect repellents for over 50 years, is effective up to a distance of 40 cm. It meets all the requirements of the Biocidal Products Regulation, is safe for humans and the environment, and can be used by pregnant women and babies from 6 months of age, in line with WHO recommendations.

SAFERSOX Mosquito and Tick Protection
Our White in White are equipped with advanced insect repellent technology that effectively keeps pesky pests like mosquitoes and ticks away from your feet – without killing the insects.
The biodegradable active ingredient used in our tick and mosquito repellent technology protects you by repelling ticks, mosquitoes and other insects from a distance of up to 40 cm – before they can even land.
Instead of relying on deadly insecticides and neurotoxins such as permethrin or DEET, we deliberately use the active ingredient EBAAP (ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate), which was developed by Merck over 40 years ago. This active ingredient is not only extremely effective, but also safe for people and the environment. It is free from allergens and can even be used safely by pregnant women and babies from 6 months of age – a recommendation that is also supported by the WHO.
Frequently asked questions about tick and mosquito protection
Our Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks are treated with SI Repel Mosquito from Smart Inovation, which contains the active ingredient EBAAP (ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate).
EBAAP is a German insect repellent that was developed by Merck over 40 years ago. Our partner, the Portuguese nanotechnology company Smart Inovation, has used it to develop the product SI Repel Mosquito, which permanently anchors EBAAP in textiles, thus providing long-lasting protection.
The active ingredient is applied directly to the fibres of the socks during the manufacturing process. This method ensures that the active ingredient penetrates deep into the textiles and remains active even after many washes, without losing its protective effect.
The insect repellent treatment on the Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks remains effective for more than 100 washes. Even after repeated washing, protection against mosquitoes, flies, lice, ticks and other insects is maintained.
EBAAP is a very effective repellent that effectively repels over 99% of insects without killing them. While DEET and permethrin are considered stronger insect repellents and are used especially in very extreme situations where maximum protection is needed, EBAAP offers almost equivalent results. The big advantage, however, is that EBAAP does not use the neurotoxins found in DEET and permethrin. This means that our active ingredient protects the skin without exposing it to unnecessary chemical exposure, while providing reliable protection against insects – safely and gently for people and the environment.
EBAAP is considered a safe, non-toxic and environmentally friendly insect repellent that is effective against a wide range of insects without adversely affecting human or animal health or the environment.
EBAAP is approved by major health agencies such as the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) and EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) in the United States. It also meets the requirements of the REACH regulation in Europe and is recommended by the WHO (World Health Organization).
Although our Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks provides a very high level of protection and effectively repels insects, it is possible that individual insects may still sting or bite. The active ingredient integrated into the socks is over 99% effective, which means that in rare cases, a mosquito or other insect could overcome the protection. It is important to know that SI Repel Mosquito® provides a strong repellent function, but cannot guarantee 100% protection. Nevertheless, the repellent significantly reduces the likelihood of insect bites and stings and ensures long-lasting protection.
Yes, the active ingredient EBAPP is safe for babies from 6 months of age and for pregnant or breastfeeding women. It is also friendly to pets, making it a versatile and safe insect repellent for the whole family.
EBAAP is known for being particularly gentle on the skin. It does not irritate the skin and is therefore ideal for people with sensitive skin or for use on children and pregnant women.
Yes, the active ingredient EBAAP is neither toxic nor harmful to the environment and does not contain any harmful substances such as permethrin, Icaridin, Deltamethrin or DEET. It meets the strict environmental standards of the REACH regulation and is recommended by the WHO.
EBAAP is environmentally friendly and biodegrades without leaving harmful residues. It does not affect humans or animals and thus contributes to sustainable and environmentally friendly protection against insects.
SAFERSOX Stay-Fresh Socks
Did you know that mosquitoes and ticks are attracted by sweat odours? That's why SAFERSOX Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks also provide effective protection against unpleasant odours. Thanks to the antibacterial treatment, odour-causing bacteria are neutralised as they develop, so that the Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks stay fresh even after long periods of wear. So you can now take off your shoes without worrying about unpleasant odours!
The Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks finish not only prevents the growth of odour-causing bacteria, but also inhibits the development of fungi. This preventive effect can help to prevent the development of athlete's foot and thus ensures additional hygiene and protection – for an all-round safe and comfortable feel.
At our store, we use a health and environmentally friendly freshness technology that is made from recycled silver chloride and is free of nano silver.
Frequently Asked Questions about Silver Chloride
The active ingredient used in the antibacterial treatment and freshness function of our Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks is silver chloride.
The manufacturer of the silver chloride used in our freshness socks is Polygiene. Polygiene is a leading supplier of odour- and freshness-retaining technologies that specialises in sustainable solutions.
Polygiene silver chloride is incorporated into the textile fibres of the socks during the manufacturing process, so that the antibacterial freshness function is permanently integrated into the fibres and does not wash out even after numerous washes.
Polygiene Silver Chloride was chosen because it effectively neutralises odour-causing bacteria while being skin- and environmentally friendly. It is made from 100% recycled silver and is free from nano-silver, making it particularly safe and sustainable.
The antibacterial freshness function remains effective for the entire lifespan of the Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks and does not wash out in the washing machine, provided that no fabric softener is used and the temperature does not exceed 40 degrees.
In addition to their insect repellent function, the Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks have also been treated with a freshness-retaining function to provide comprehensive protection and maximum comfort. Mosquitoes and ticks are often attracted by sweat odours. Therefore, the freshness function, which neutralises odour-causing bacteria through an antibacterial treatment, not only helps to prevent unpleasant odours but also reduces the attraction to insects. This dual function ensures that the socks not only protect against insects but also remain hygienic and smell fresh even after long periods of wear. This provides all-round comfort while also increasing the effectiveness of the insect protection.
No, the silver treatment is done with the active ingredient developed by the Swedish company Polygiene and is harmless to health. Polygiene does not use nanosilver, which could potentially penetrate the skin. Instead, the silver ions used by Polygiene are over 100 times larger and therefore too large to penetrate the skin. Polygiene textiles are medically approved (category 1) and are also safe for direct contact with the skin.
No. Studies have shown that the silver chloride used has no negative effects on the skin's natural bacterial flora. The silver ions are only active on the outside of the textile material and do not affect perspiration or the natural bacterial flora.
No, the Polygiene active ingredient is very skin-friendly and carries the medical category 1 seal of quality, which is also used for products with direct skin contact, such as bandages. There is no evidence that Polygiene increases the risk of skin irritation or allergies.
Theoretically, small amounts of silver ions may be released during washing, but these combine quickly with sulfides in the environment to form chemically stable, non-soluble silver sulfide. This does not affect living organisms and does not pollute the bacterial stages of sewage treatment plants, the treated water or the sewage sludge.
Polygiene technology is highly sustainable. It uses silver chloride derived from 100% recycled silver, and only minimal quantities of it are needed. The treatment reduces the need for frequent washing, which in turn saves water, energy and detergent. Polygiene-treated Tick & Mosquito Repellent Sports Socks can also be washed at a lower temperature, which further reduces energy consumption. What's more, the socks last longer, which means less waste.
