Tabard
Tabard is a household name in southern Africa. A world-class mosquito and insect repellent, Tabard has remained the best known brand in its category in southern Africa for decades. All Tabard variants are manufactured in South Africa under Medicine Control Council regulations.
Tabard is not only used to keep mosquitoes at bay, but works equally effectively against fleas, ticks, flies and gnats. The brand is available in various convenient formulations, including stick, lotion and an ozone friendly aerosol spray. Tabard is now also available in a 70g Aerosol and a 50ml Lotion perfect for the hospitality industry
Its active ingredient, diethyltoluamide – commonly known as Deet, was first developed for use by the US military in the 1950's and is approved by the World Health Organisation. What Deet does is provide a long-lasting, protective and virtually invisible film over the area of skin to which the product is applied. This film has the effect of repelling insects away from the user.

Acorn also manufactures a range of Tabard citronella candles and Lamp Oil, as well as a rather stylish Terracotta Candle and refill that elevates this repellent to a décor item you’d be proud to display. Burned by day or night, the natural effect of citronella’s vapour effectively repels mosquitoes and other insects. Tabard Citronella Candles and Tabard Lamp Oil are specifically made to release the vapour of citronella without actually burning the oil, which would reduce its efficacy. They are also specifically shaped for a constant mix of citronella into the air. Tabard’s range of citronella candles provide up 100 hours of protection. Tabard Citronella candles have been tested and proven by the South African Bureau of Standards (SABS) and are registered with the South African Department of Agriculture. Tabard is also available for export.
