Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne disease caused by dengue virus, prevalent in tropical and subtropical areas.In 2024, dengue fever broke out in Brazil. According to the Brazilian Ministry of Health, as of June 18, the Ministry of Health’s Arbovirus Monitoring Team had 5,968,224 suspected cases of dengue fever and 3,910 confirmed deaths in 2024. (Quoted from Agência Brasil).

With global climate change and the increasing number of mosquito-borne diseases, dengue fever has become a major public health challenge in many parts of the world. Dengue fever is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes. Common symptoms include fever, headache, joint and muscle pain, rash, etc. In order to effectively prevent dengue fever, it is crucial to avoid mosquito bites.

Among the various measures to prevent mosquitoes, the use of effective mosquito repellents is a key means. Among the many mosquito repellents, N,N-Diethyl-m-toluamide DEET is widely regarded as one of the most effective and long-lasting mosquito repellent ingredients.

What is N,N-Diethyl-m-toluamide DEET?

N,N-Diethyl-m-toluamide DEET CAS 134-62-3 is a powerful insect repellent ingredient. Since it was developed in 1946, it has been widely used in various mosquito repellent products such as mosquito repellent sprays, lotions and bracelets. It can effectively repel a variety of mosquitoes, including Aedes mosquitoes that spread dengue virus, prevent bites, and thus reduce the risk of contracting dengue fever.

Advantages of using DEET to prevent dengue fever

1、Long-lasting protection: DEET can provide long-term protection, usually lasting 4 to 8 hours after a single application, and is suitable for use during outdoor activities.

2、Broad-spectrum mosquito repellent: DEET is not only effective against Aedes mosquitoes, but also repels a variety of mosquitoes that bite humans, such as Anopheles (a mosquito species that spreads malaria) and Culex (a mosquito species that spreads yellow fever).

3、High safety: The appropriate use of DEET will not harm the human body. Through decades of use experience, DEET has been recommended by many health organizations around the world as a safe mosquito repellent ingredient.

How to use DEET?

When preventing dengue fever, Most of our BLIT Chemical customers use DEET to produce mosquito repellents, usually at a dosage of 10-30%. Consumers should apply DEET-containing mosquito repellents evenly on exposed skin and clothing, especially ankles, arms, necks and other parts that are prone to bites. It can be used appropriately after long-term outdoor activities or heavy sweating to maintain the protective effect.

NOTICE：DEET is also suitable for children and adults, but children should use low-concentration formulas and apply them under the guidance of adults. For babies, it is recommended to choose other suitable mosquito repellent products and avoid directly using high-concentration DEET.
