Would it work for Zika mosquitoes? I'd appreciate the answer very much

I think so. this prod would work on any type of mosquitoes...I would imagined. I applied on me and my kids every 3-4 hrs and it seemed to work.

Can it be used while swimming

I would assume it can but I would apply it again after drying off.

Why does the label say "do not use under clothing?"

Topical insect repellents do not work as effectively when they are under clothing.

Would this work on an african safari or do i need deet?

This worked great for me on a 15 day trip to Uganda. We were outside every day on safari and in jungle like areas. Worked awesome! Mosquitos LOVE me in general and I never got a single bite with this lotion.
