FästinG: A repellent based on lemon eucalyptus extract
This archive product brief introduces FästinG, a tick-repellent spray based on an extract from lemon eucalyptus leaves.
FästinG was presented as a tick-repellent spray using an ingredient extracted from the leaves of lemon eucalyptus, identified in the original announcement as Eucalyptus citriodora.
The product was marketed as a complement to clothing that covers the skin, with the spray intended for areas left exposed. The announcement described it as easy to apply and nonsticky, and claimed it reduced the risk of tick bites by discouraging ticks from approaching.
The source stated that the product had been reviewed and approved by the Swedish Chemicals Agency, which assesses effectiveness and risks to people and the environment. That statement records the announcement’s description of the product rather than confirming its current regulatory status.
At the time of the announcement, FästinG was sold through pharmacies and grocery stores.
