Hi,

I'm pretty sure it means that it has a shelf life of 24 or 12 months once its opened.

If they have reduced it it probable means they've decided it doesnt last as long as it used to. Maybe they've reduced the preservative content.

I've had mine over two years and will be taking it to Spain with me as its great for detering the mozzies.

Regards Pat

hi marion, i am an A**n lady and have just got a delivery on friday with some sss. yes the open tub means once you have used it, will last 12 months. i sell lots of it as it deters the dreaded midgies(well some times,no guarantee)

they are already up here and biting well!!
