Will this be enough for a week of use?

Not enough for a week, would estimate it would last 2 or 3 good uses.

I have refilled mine regularly without difficulty. Use a small screwdriver to lever the spray-button upwards (opposite to the direction you press it). Underneath, do the same for the small bung where the spray-tube enters the bottle. Both are push-fits, they just pop off, and press back on. The hole is large enough to carefully squirt repellent into it from one of the larger bottles. I like this flat bottle for the way it goes neatly in a pocket. With the labels peeled off, you can see how much repellent is left by holding it up to a bright light. I also have a 20ml clear plastic spray bottle I bought separately to put repellent in. It's easier to see how much is left.

Can you use yhe wipes on a dog to prevent ticks whilst camping

Hi. I have asked Smidge on your behalf and please see response below: "Smidge is not registered for use on animals, so we can’t officially recommend this. A lot of our customers do use it on dogs, horses etc with no ill effect (it has been passed safe to use on humans after all) but if people ask me I always say that it isn’t registered for this use but if they are going to try it to make sure they avoid the animal’s eyes and do a patch test first."

How do you open pack?

Hi, you dont open it you just push the top of the canister ( the middle bit ) and it comes out, but I found ( also a lot of other people as well ) that this will only last one application. So me personally I think its not worth the money, but read other reviews as see what they say. Hope this helped.

Bug off!

The packing is ideal for keeping in pocket when hiking or playing golf. Effective against tics and midges. Expensive but it works!

Great against mosquitos from my own experience

Great against mosquitos abroad and only one drop in 8 hours they’ve changed the packaging because the the card size isn’t available. I hope they get it back as it doesn’t rake up any space

Well, I didn’t get bitten…

I saw this product on a recent holiday to Scotland where midges can be a big issue. I then got it for a holiday to Spain. In recent years I’ve suffered badly with insect bites whenever I’m abroad but no bites this time. I’m going away again soon and I’ll get the bigger size and keep my fingers crossed that it continues to work for me. This small size is ideal for on the go application and is small enough to fit in a pocket. So far so good. Would recommend.

OK but you still need a headnet

It works for a while and the pack is really convenient to carry everywhere. BUT if you're in Scotland you'll still need a headnet.

Works great

Yes it’s expensive, but it smells nice and it works wonders when I visit my dad’s house that has a stubborn flea infestation.
