Arthropod Testing Facility
Swiss TPH has an extensive experience in testing public health pesticide formulations. For various clients we evaluate the effectiveness of mosquito repellents and insecticides. Swiss TPH has specialist facilities to rear a range of mosquito colonies and to undertake bioassays according to internationally recognised standards. In collaboration with our African partner institutions we also offer semi-field and field trials.
Label for Mosquito Repellents
The well-known, internationally registered Swiss TPH quality label guarantees high efficacy standards for topical mosquito repellents. We particularly recommend travellers to the tropics to purchase products with our label.
