Uri-Mate freed our minds from the worries associated with public bathrooms and situations with limited access to or less than desirable facilities. The Uri-Mate funnels were light weight, practical to carry in their individual packages, disposable, resistant to moisture during use and affordable. Uri-Mates could come in handy in many situations such as visiting a public restroom, having to use an Eastern toilet (flat on the ground), a latrine or outhouse or going camping, for urine tests and post surgery.

We took along two types of DEET with us on safari in Botswana and South Africa. At some point, out in the Okavango Delta, we found that even in the fall, long after the rains, there were still enough bugs to have concerns about malaria. The stronger Deet solution we got from the camping store made both of us queasy and was unpleasant to have on the skin. Ultrathon Insect Repellent that we got from Magellan’s was a pleasant contrast. It had a decent smell and kept the little critters off the times we used it. Now it is always part of our safari gear.
