Hidden Valley Broome

Midgie Magic (formerly Sandfly Salve) was designed many years ago to help newcomers to Broome cope with biting midges and other insects. This cream is to put on after you have been bitten, as subsequent swelling, itching and infection following bites is the main problem. The cream helps to soothe, reduce the itch, disinfect and help bites with natural anti-inflammatory ingredients. Works also on bee stings and even, so we are told, on Scottish midgies! 

Make sure you download the pamphlet "Biting Midges in Broome" for more information to understand and cope with them. If this link doesn't work, please get in touch with us so we can send you one via email. 

Apply frequently until bites have healed. Can be used in conjunction with Herbal Skin Calm, a cooling soothing gel for all itchy skin conditions

Please note that an unlucky few will have severe reactions to midge bites, requiring medical attention and anti-histamines.

Only a tiny amount is needed of this rich, packed full of goodies cream – apply according to the level of dryness or humidity and the condition of skin. Generally a thin layer is adequate. Apply to entire face, being careful to pat around eye area and avoid drag.

Pestoff Spray Concentrate in 100ml glass bottle. 

NOTE: DOES NOT INCLUDE TRIGGER SPRAY BOTTLE - please click here if you would like this added to your order

Our radical solution to combat the plague proportions of mozzies which can make life difficult in the Kimberley from February to May, at the end of the Wet and, of course, for similar conditions throughout Australia at various times. We wanted a large quantity natural but effective Pestoff trigger spray which can be kept at the front door and easily applied all over whenever gardening, building and other outdoor activities are sabotaged by clouds of mozzies. So here it is:

An all-natural herbal, neem and essential oil spray concentrate to discourage bites, in tropical strength. And feedback is unanimous that it works! The critters buzz around, but won't land on sprayed skin. We made a concentrate in a 100ml glass bottle which can easily be sent by mail order. You don't pay the freight for water. This concentrate makes up 500ml of spray. You can either purchase the empty good quality trigger spray bottle from us or buy your own from a hardware or gardening store.

Simply pour the 100ml concentrate into your 500ml bottle, top up with water, shake well and use. If your bottle holds less, use 1 part concentrate to every 4 parts water (eg. 20ml or 1 tablespoon concentrate plus 80ml water for a 100ml bottle).

Contains: local plant extracts, neem oil, polysorbate 20 (harmless solubuliser to make the spray homogenous), pure essential oils of eucalyptus citriodora, spike lavender, geranium, kunzea and peppermint, benzylalcohol DHA (preservative). Active ingredients - neem and essential oils, plant extracts.

Our highly successful Pestoff Concentrate made into a smaller 125ml spray version for normal use or a 500ml trigger spray for heavy use requirements. 

A completely natural herbal spray designed to deter insects. It contains no DEET but has 3 active ingredient types - a local plant extract used traditionally to deter insects, neem oil (a natural insecticide) and proven insect deterring essential oils. It works perfectly well if used properly - it needs to be applied to all exposed skin and re-applied every 2 - 3 hours.

Use sparingly on children under 3 years as this spray contains 3% essential oils.  Some customers have told us anecdotally that Pestoff works if diluted again by half, so we suggest trying this on young children. As for all skin care products, patch test on the inner wrist first. Always cover up physically (eg. with muslin over a pram) if you can. Another idea is to use a thick layer of coconut oil (or a mineral oil which stays on the surface) on exposed skin so insects can't get a purchase on skin.

'Biting Midges in Broome' (handy hints for visitors & newcomers) pamphlet included in every purchase.

A fresh and antiseptic soap useful to help guard against infection and to repel insects. This makes it a perfect soap to take camping. It is also useful when the mozzies or midges are out, or when children have cuts or sores on their skin. Contains neem oil, a natural insecticide & insect deterring, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal pure essential oils.

Handmade using the traditional cold pressed method with each bar having a 3 to 4 week curing time which results in a firm, mild, creamy, moisturising soap, with rich lather even in hard water.
