Icaridin is harmless and safe for clothing and gear. It is compatible with cloth, plastics, vinyl as well as backpacks, synthetic fabrics, watches, and sunglasses, and will not damage plastics or synthetic coatings. It is also safe around products such as GPS units, watches and phones. 

Since Icaridin is compatible with various fabrics, clothing, and gear, Icaridin is the safest form of bug repellent, because of its non-corrosive and non-toxic properties.  

Additionally, Icardin does not leave clothing and materials oily and smelly as it is a non-oily and scent-free product. 

Making the switch from DEET products to Icaridin-based products can also protect your belongings and ensure that no toxic chemicals follow you as you travel or participate in your favourite activities. Plus, the World Health Organization recommends Icaridin as the number one form of bug repellent to avoid various bug bites and diseases!
