I don't know whether it was banned or not, but Bushman currently lists Coles, Woolworths, IGA, National Pharmacies, AMCAL and a whole lot more as stockists of its insect repellants.
The Bushman variant I tested had 40% DEET content, but their Bushman Repellent Ultra, Bushman Heavy Duty and Bushman Plus all have 800g/kg Diethytoluamide, or 80% DEET
Their published MSDS only reports on how effective their product is; it provides no information on the properties of any hazardous chemicals and how they can affect health and safety (which is what an MSDS should be doing).

As I said, check the label.

Cheers,
Glen
