Pestects Reviews 

I found these bracelets worked brilliantly and I was very surprised as normally I get covered in mosquito bites when we go abroad. I have used them in Crete twice over last couple of years and Italy last month and no bites at all. The day I went home from Crete once I took them off and got bitten 6 times while waiting on the tarmac to board the plane!! Would definitely buy again!

Bought these for our holiday to Corfu, my husband and I were both wearing 2 of the bracelets, my husband got 10 mozzie bites and I got at least 15. Would not recommend. Emailed custome support, got no reply. Put a negative review on their advertisement only for it to be deleted

It’s guaranteed I’m that person who gets bitten abroad.
I had seen Pestects on FB and decided to give them a try.
I have just returned from Corfu and both myself and my husband used them, and I can honestly say that neither of us got bitten.
I will definitely be making sure they come with me next time we are away.

I have bought these bracelets twice now, they are absolutely fantastic. Nice smell and great colours.
One thing to be aware of if they get wet the colours can run so take off before showering.
Love them

Amazing leather bands. Look stylish, in fact I keep them on longer than the holiday !! They do an amazing job at keeping bugs away and the smell is not overpowering like bug spray !! Would definitely recommend for all the family.

Love there’s used on holiday for the last few years really good I even gave a lady some as she had bits all over her leg and arms she said at the end of her holiday that she couldn’t believe how good they are and thanked me so much I definitely would highly recommend them best protection for me and others

Seriously rubbish. Just returned from Turkey & our family of 8 got bitten badly. We even got bitten around the bracelet. Huge waste of money ☹️

We found pestects via an advert and gave them a go on our first trip to Türkiye. I was pleasantly surprised at how well they worked not just for me but for my family. My daughter liked how we could mix and match colours for the outfits as we would generally only wear them in the evening. She had one as an anklet as well given the generous sizing. The smell is not overwhelming and I believe made a real difference from pesky bites. We’ve used them ever since on our holidays - we use in conjunction with Neals Yard spray as well and this is the best combination for us. Great product, convenient, effective and safe to use. Give it a try!

They look and smell nice but they don’t do the job, my friend & I got badly bitten wearing them. 👎

I have just come back from Borneo and despite being right in the jungle1 hr 45mins over the open sea in a speedboat despite lots of insects, I didnt get bitten once and everytime insects were around they moved away from me. I wore a bracelet on each wrist and one round each ankle. A great product that really works.

These work brilliantly we were always getting bit ,we work in a warehouse through the night and they have the doors open so all the biting insects would fly in and eat our ankles especially, yet we first tried these last year(2025) and no bites whatsoever. My husband wears his on his wrist but I have to wear mine on my ankle as I have a very strong sense of smell and they are really strong but they work and that's the main thing I want to say, I have told my colleagues at work and my friends about these I will highly recommend these

Honestly, as an individual who is highly allergic to everything,these have been a blessing.
Stylish but effective. Coupled with the bug spray repellent and the bite pen my reactions to bug bites can now be controlled effectively. Thank you

Brilliant bands , strong , attractive and effective . Good variety of colours if you are like me and enjoy matching things .
Have bought elsewhere in the past and they have been flimsy and broken . These are strong .

I was so looking forward to receiving these and having a ‘bite’ free holiday. They look and smell great and come well packaged and I like the fact that they claim to be natural and a family run company. But truth is - they just didn’t work. Got loads of bites throughout my holiday despite wearing one on my wrist and ankle. Even changed them every few days - but just didn’t work - so disappointed

Time to buy some more of these.
Not only do they look good, they actually work too.
My husband and I used these for our holiday to Thailand and we were not bitten once, even after a day in the jungle.

Started to used them abroad 3 years ago and the spray, They are comfortable to wear, have a nice smell are waterproof and more importantly they stop bites.

My husband and I love these. We’ve used them twice on holiday in Costa Rica where the mosquitoes can be particularly bitey and they’ve always been very effective. I’m very prone to getting bitten so I tend to wear as both an anklet and bracelet when we go out. I much prefer these to covering myself in Deet

Unfortunately didn't work for us. Still got bitten by midges. Also the dye from the darker bracelets went onto clothes and our skin.

We first tried these a couple of years ago as we thought the idea of combining an attractive and fun holiday bracelet with an active insect repellent was a good one. They worked so well that we have used them on all our holidays since and we are abroad about 3 times a year. We have recommended them to all our friends and family and we wouldn’t do that if we weren’t happy and confident with the product. I love picking out what colour I’m going wear next as there’s such a choice.

They appear to have worked really well! The year before I ended up with loads of bites but the year I used these I had no bites at all
