hi I believe so.
I've been told they are, as is DEET up to 50% used carefully (its toxic to baby when its toxic to you!). I'm in Malaysia at the moment, heading to some mosquito areas and have been recommended Incognito, a natural product with eucalyptus that even the military believe is as good as Permethrin for impregnating clothes for antimossy stuff. I got the spray and aftersun off amazon
Hope that helps.

Def give incognito a go, natural and smells nice (I did notice that Boots stock a natural Jungle formula which might be the same product as incognito). I was also told that mosquitos go for pregnant women more because of hormones, so do use it. Also they prefer people low in b vitamins :s so I've been eating marmite when I can to supplement my multivits. I did a lot of last minute panicking and research before coming out here a week after finding out I was pregnant!
Enjoy all that vitamin D
