The highlight of Good knight Fast Card TM is that it burns for just three minutes but is effective against mosquitoes for nearly four hours. It consumes no electricity and is easy to use, which makes it different from all other repellents in the market. The product has been priced at ` 10 for a booklet of 10 cards, which means
Rs. 1 per card. EASY TO USE WORKS INSTANTLY SAFE Rs. 1 easy to use, using it is as simple as - ‘Fold’, ‘Fire’, and ‘Foo’ starts working immediately - ‘3 min instant action’ provides 4 hours of protection has ‘TFT’ - one of the safest active molecules

Announcing the launch of Good knight Fast Card, Nisaba Godrej, Executive Director, Godrej Consumer Products Ltd. said, “56 per cent of the population in our country does not use mosquito repellents. We felt that there is a need for a solution that is effective, easy to use, and at a price point that is attractive to the masses. Simple, innovative and economical, this format promises to change the way Indians look at mosquito repellants. All one needs to do here is fold, light, and blow out for instant protection.”

It is an easy to use product with unique features such as instant efficacy, high affordability and most importantly does not need any electricity. In current times when the country is faced with a high risk of vector borne diseases viz. Malaria and Dengue, Good knight Fast Card is an effective solution and we aim to take it across our rural and urban landscape. I am confident that this innovation will thrill India’s vast populace.”
