Grand Tongo

Grand Tongo is a DEET-free insect repellent brand founded by Mike Boone and Cody H. Johnson, designed to provide effective outdoor protection without harsh chemicals. The brand uses 20% Picaridin as its active ingredient, offering 12-hour protection against mosquitoes and ticks while avoiding the strong chemical smell of traditional DEET-based repellents.

Grand Tongo's product line includes individual sprays in scents such as Green Tea + Mint, Citrus + Sandalwood, and Fragrance Free, as well as bundled systems like the Town + Jungle Full Protection System. The brand is available at major retailers including Target, Amazon, and QVC, making it accessible for both everyday outdoor use and adventure travel.

The company emphasizes clean formulations, skin-friendly ingredients, and a mission to make outdoor protection more pleasant and widely adopted. By partnering with retailers and appearing on QVC, Grand Tongo has built a growing presence in the personal insect repellent market.

Grand Tongo stands out in the insect repellent category by prioritizing user experience through pleasant scents and non-greasy formulations, appealing to consumers who want effective protection without compromising on sensory comfort.
