Third-Party Laboratory Request for Tick Repellency Efficacy Testing of Insect Care Products

A consumer insect care brand is seeking a qualified third-party laboratory to conduct efficacy testing of its products against ticks. The product line includes a DEET-free insect repellent spray and a post-bite anti-itch cream. Mosquito efficacy testing has already been completed, and the current request focuses specifically on evaluating performance against tick species under controlled testing conditions. The engagement is intended to be conducted through a formal contract testing arrangement.
