I have not been able to find any field tests or scientific backing as to the efficacy of the Faso Soap.

Kindly please go to www.malariaprotection.com where all data and field tests on NOPIKEX® can be found, which started production in Colombia in 1989. Rodrigo Salazar-Botero +++

In the early 1980’s Mr. Thomas Edward Simmons formulated his Soap Insect Repellent ( Mosbar ) which was subsequently patented in Colombia, Canada, the United States, United Kingdom, Venezuela, Panama, and many other counties. In 1985 SALDER S.A.S, Colombia, bought Mr. Simmons’ Patents and technical instructions, thereby, the advent of Nopikex Soap Insect Repellent which is marketed by one of the largest pharmaceuticals in the world, BAYER. However, the highlight of our association was that Mr. Simmons accepted to become our Technical Director, an association that lasted for many years until his death.

In the posts it is mentioned several times the lack of data on soap repellents, therefore, please allow us to provide the data we available.

I would like to mention that in the late nineties Mr. Simmons modified his original formulation by increasing the main active component to 22%, 23.8%, 34.5% and for children 10%.
