IR007: The Future of Mosquito Protection

A Safer, Longer-Lasting Alternative to DEET

At VectorFree, we are redefining insect protection with IR007, an innovative, cost-effective mosquito repellent designed to provide over 12 hours of protection. Unlike traditional DEET-based products, which require frequent reapplication and can damage synthetic materials, IR007 offers a superior alternative that is safe, effective, environmentally responsible, and appealing to use.

The Science Behind IR007

A Breakthrough in Protection

IR007 is developed using a proprietary formulation designed to provide long-lasting mosquito protection while maintaining safety and environmental responsibility. By leveraging advances in formulation chemistry and entomological research, IR007 effectively disrupts mosquito sensory mechanisms, preventing them from detecting human hosts. Our innovative approach extends repellency through controlled-release technology, ensuring prolonged protection without the need for harmful surfactants or synthetic chemicals.

Engineered to be the Best

Laboratory and field tests have demonstrated IR007's superior efficacy compared to traditional repellents. Its molecular interactions create a robust barrier that mosquitoes find highly unappealing, significantly reducing biting behavior for extended periods. In addition, IR007’s composition minimizes skin absorption, making an already safe product even safer for long-term use. Through rigorous stability testing under various environmental conditions, we ensure that IR007 maintains its effectiveness, delivering reliable protection in diverse climates and settings.

Why It Matters

More than Just a Repellent—A Global Health Solution

Mosquitoes are not just a nuisance—they are the deadliest creatures on Earth. Every year, mosquito-borne diseases like malaria, dengue, and Zika affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide, leading to severe health crises, economic burdens, and loss of life.

The Global Impact of Mosquito-Borne Diseases:

  • ⚠️ Half the world’s population is at risk of mosquito-borne diseases.

  • 💀 Over 750,000 deaths per year due to mosquito-related illnesses.

  • 💰 Billions are lost annually in healthcare costs and productivity.

IR007 Outperforms the Competition

A Next-Generation Repellent for Superior Protection

IR007 is not just another mosquito repellent—it is a scientifically engineered solution designed to provide long-lasting, safe, and highly effective protection without the downsides of traditional repellents. Built on cutting-edge research and innovation, IR007 sets a new benchmark for insect protection, offering superior performance and environmental responsibility.

Feature IR007 DEET Picaridin Essential Oils

What Makes IR007 Different?

  • Extended Protection: Provides 12+ hours of continuous defense, far exceeding the shorter protection provided by DEET and other repellents.

  • Safe & Eco-Friendly: Free from harmful surfactants and designed with biodegradable, non-toxic ingredients, making it safer for humans and the environment.

  • Non-Greasy & Comfortable: IR007 has a light, non-greasy texture and a pleasant aroma, unlike many repellents that feel sticky or oily.

  • Material-Safe: Unlike DEET, which damages plastics and synthetic fabrics, IR007 is designed to be safe for clothing, gear, and equipment.

  • Scientifically Proven: Developed through rigorous research and testing, IR007 has demonstrated superior efficacy in controlled studies.

No Repellent – The Problem

🔥Without protection, mosquitoes aggressively bite within seconds. This demonstrates the urgent need for better, long-lasting repellents.

25% DEET – The Current Standard, But Not Good Enough

⏳ DEET has been the industry’s most sold repellent for decades but has significant drawbacks. Tests show mosquitoes continue to approach DEET-treated skin, persistently attempting to bite even when initially repelled. Although DEET temporarily prevents biting, its protective effects last only a few hours. DEET offers some protection but requires frequent reapplication, damages materials, and has limited effectiveness over time. This highlights the need for a next-generation solution.

IR007 – Advancing Mosquito Protection Through Innovation

🛡️ Preliminary results show that IR007 takes mosquito protection to the next level. Unlike DEET, mosquitoes do not approach a treated arm. This suggests that IR007 provides a more effective and longer-lasting barrier. With over 12 hours of protection, a more comfortable user experience, and a formulation designed to be safe for people and materials, IR007 represents the future of mosquito repellents.

The Results Are Clear

🚫 DEET struggles – Mosquitoes still approach, requiring frequent reapplication.

✅ IR007 dominates – No mosquitoes, no bites, no reapplication needed for >12 hours.

VectorFree is actively seeking investors and collaborators to bring IR007 to market. Join us in shaping the future of insect protection.

Beyond Repellents: Advancing Agricultural Pest Control

VectorFree is more than just mosquito protection. While IR007 is transforming insect repellents, our mission extends to safeguarding agriculture from destructive pests. Insects threaten food security, damage crops, and drive reliance on chemical pesticides that harm ecosystems, eventually leading to resistance.

We are developing eco-friendly, precision-based pest control solutions that protect crops without toxic residues or environmental risks. We aim to create sustainable, long-lasting alternatives to traditional pesticides by leveraging cutting-edge entomology and molecular biology.

VectorFree is committed to partnering with agricultural experts and industry leaders to build a future where farms thrive without compromising environmental health.
