## Description

An effective alternative to DEET that’s safe for the whole family, Sawyer’s 20% Picaridin insect and tick repellent provides effective protection from disease-spreading ticks (Lyme disease, tick-borne encephalitis) and mosquitoes (West Nile, Dengue, and Zika viruses). More effective at repelling biting flies than DEET, it's also effective at repelling stable flies, black flies, gnats, chiggers, and sand flies. Very comfortable to wear on your skin, it's ideal for all your outdoor adventures, from camping, backpacking, hunting, and fishing to backyard BBQs, sporting events, days at the park, and more. Sawyer 20% Picaridin topical spray is effective for up to 12 hours against mosquitoes and ticks (14 hours for the lotion), and the spray and lotion provide up to 8 hours of protection against biting flies, gnats, chiggers, and sand flies. Both the non-greasy, fragrance-free spray and lotion dry quickly and won't damage plastics or synthetic coatings — safe for use on clothing, backpacks, watches, sunglasses, fishing line, firearm finishes, and more. Available in a variety of spray and lotion bottle sizes. The top-rated bug repellent by WireCutter/New York Times (May, 2020), it's also considered to be the repellent of first choice by the Public Health Agency of Canada’s Canadian Advisory Committee on Tropical Medicine and Travel for travelers 6 months to 12 years of age. Maximize protection by pairing with Sawyer Permethrin tick and insect repellent spray for clothing and gear. Sawyer Products has offered the best, most technologically advanced solutions for protection against sun, bugs, water, and injuries – everything from first aid kits developed for wilderness to point-of-use water filters that filter contaminated water to levels cleaner than U. S. bottled water.

Review: The best picaridin spray out there. Get it. - Others have said it, but it's worth my time in case it helps others... Buy this bug spray. I'm the type of person who will get bit 10 times while wearing bug spray when nobody else got bit or even thought to use it, and I'm super allergic, so I wear bug spray outside 100% of the time in summer, even if I'm just stepping out to take out the trash. I literally moved to another state because summers were so bad. Despite all this, I used to spend much of summer miserably treating bug bites and losing sleep from the reactions. But since I started using this bug spray last year, I've not gotten a single bite on skin that was treated with it. I've only gotten bit on areas like my face/hands where I didn't apply much or washed it off, through clothes, or while using other bug sprays, including other picaridin sprays. I initially wondered if the bugs weren't as bad in recent years, but last time I ran out, I bought some Off spray cans because they were smaller and more convenient to travel with. I got two bites the first day I used it. Switched back and haven't gotten bit since. I'm not sure if the actual formula is any different than other brands, but I think larger spray makes it easier to evenly coat your skin, and it also doesn't come out overly misty, so you don't feel like you're breathing in chemicals. Like all picaridin, the smell is mild and there's no sticky or oily feeling.
Review: Heavier Spray - but Good! - The Picaridin is super effective, no argument there. This specific spray has no real odor, and is not greasy - but it IS somewhat oily, similar to a light lotion. It does not stain things like your car seats / armrests, and is easy to clean off. It also washes off your skin easily with soap and water when the day is over. The container is deceptive because it feels half empty, but it does actually contain the advertised amount. The top has a 'lock' that prevents the button from spraying, great for packing. The propellant is separate from the product, so even if the bottle got punctured only the propellant would escape, and the liquid would stay in the can. It is not a mist, but rather an actual spray, so there is minimal waste and overspray. Also less impacted by wind. The product dispenses at a pretty high rate - you have to move the bottle quickly to avoid over spraying one area. You can spray at any angle, even upside down.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Stuff I Have Used to Thwart Bugs. If you are "Sweet-blooded" Buy This
*by E***U on June 25, 2019*

Okay, I have what is known it the deep South as sweet blood. Bugs just cannot resist taking a chunk out of me. I have used every brand and type of OTC bug spray found in drug stores across the country. Most either had minimal or no impact, or lasted a very short time. I had pretty much resigned myself to a life of itching and scratching, not to mention passing up many outdoor activities. While looking for flea/tick medicine for my dogs, I decided to take a quick look on Amazon for something new. I came across this product and read the reviews. I decided to give it a shot, resigned to the likely fact that I was once again wasting my time and money. But, this stuff is amazing! After spending many hours at the local dog park fending off insect assaults, I sprayed this stuff on my exposed arms, my jeans and my baseball cap. First thing I noticed is that it didn't stink. It has a light, sort of lemon smell. Next thing I noticed is that it appeared wetter, but more evenly distributed, than I expected. But, it didn't feel greasy or uncomfortable. Nor did it seem to bother my dogs, although I did make a point of keeping them out of spraying range. Into the dog park we went. We spent about an hour there. No swatting away bugs and no bites. This stuff is great. And, this stuff lasts a long time. The next day, my wife and I had breakfast outdoors at a cafe. Again, no bug attack and my wife, who is very chemical-averse, said she did not notice any chemical smell. Depending on your use or preference, this could be good or bad. For me, it is great. After short order, it transformed from being wet to becoming a slightly sticky (but not annoyingly so) thin coating. And it stayed there until I washed it off. The jeans also had a slightly sticky coating, which remained until the next day. Although it was slightly sticky to the touch, it's not like things stuck to it and there was no residue on my leather car seat. I could se how this slight stickiness and extreme lasting power could present a problem in certain circumstances, hence the 4 (as opposed to 5) stars. If you have sweet blood and find other bug strays ineffective, I definitely recommend giving this stuff a try. If, however, you are not singled out by bugs, this may be more than you need. Update: We have been experiencing a number of unusually hot humid days, the kind that causes flying insects to come out full force. This is amplified at the dog park, where, apparently the well-protected dogs are shunned in favor of more tasty humans. The tiny black flying fangs were literally swarming. Yet, while others were fiercely swatting at the air, I sat calmly, watching the insects. Only one persistent troublemaker came near me and, while making an annoyance out of himself, did not land on or bite me. This stuff is fantastic. Although I didn't feel it while at the park, once I returned to my relatively cool home, I felt like I was coated in a thin layer of plastic. But, it easily washed off. A small price to pay not to spend the night itching and scratching. Given how well this product works, I have changed the 4 stars to 5.
