As demand grows for outdoor, gardening, agricultural, and worksite products that reduce reliance on chemicals, insect-repellent goods with simple handling and low environmental impact are attracting attention.
At Lifestyle Week Tokyo Summer, Eikyu Co., Ltd. introduced “Oniyanma-kun,” an insect-repellent item inspired by the natural characteristics of the giant dragonfly, which preys on insects such as bees, horseflies, flies, and mosquitoes.
The product does not use insecticides or repellent chemicals. Instead, it is designed to make use of insects’ instinctive avoidance of predators, and can be worn or attached for outdoor use.
With cumulative sales in Japan exceeding 2 million units, the product is being proposed as a sustainable insect-repellent item for outdoor leisure, gardening, agriculture, construction sites, and other situations where people want to reduce contact with insects.

Starting with word-of-mouth, we have sold over 2 million units in Japan.
Our Oniyanma-kun is a world first in insect repellent, and it does not use any insecticides or repellents.
The Oniyanma dragonfly, due to its characteristics as an insect, preys on bees, horseflies, flies, mosquitoes, etc.
Therefore, when insects that are preyed upon by the Oniyanma come within a radius of 2 meters, they instinctively flee to avoid being eaten.
This insect repellent appeals to the instinct of the insects,and simply wearing it makes it an effective insect repellant, so it is a sustainable product that does not harm the body.
