Insect repellent is a chemical solution designed to repel insects such as mosquitoes, flies, and gnats. It typically contains a combination of ingredients like DEET, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus that make the area where it's applied unattractive or unpleasant to insects.
To prevent insect repellent stains on linen fabrics in future, ensure that the fabric is completely dry before applying the product. This will help prevent insect repellent from soaking into the fabric and causing a stain.
