Products SP5442 Picaridin Insect Repellent, 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 2) - Packaging May Vary

I went for a trek in the Malaysian jungle and I used the product both on my skin and on clothes: very effective and no mosquitos or other insects punctures, nor any oily or sticky sensation during the trek.

Really effective and efficient not even one bite in the whole trip.

I live in Wisconsin, with a seasonal wetland and plenty of mosquitoes and ticks close by. I actually contracted Lyme disease last year on my own property (caught it and treated it early, so no long-lasting complications, thankfully) and since then I've been actively looking for better insect repellants. I've spent a LOT of my life outdoors, and pretty much hate DEET and don't want it on my skin or tech fabrics. Spraying my boots and cuffs and hat brims with DEET has worked pretty well for me over the years, but obviously a tick still got me last year. Anyway, I tried this Picaridin spray this year. It does not irritate my skin or smell bad like DEET sprays. It leaves no greasy traces on my clothing. And when I use it, I have noticed that I have been getting ZERO mosquito or gnat bites when I am outside on buggy evenings. Now, Wisconsin mosquitoes and gnats are not nearly as bad as the kind you encounter in Alaska or tropical zone cypress groves, and I haven't tested this stuff in those conditions yet, but so far my experience is that this spray works better than anything I've used before in 50 years of outdoor adventuring.

This insect repellent is effective but the sprayer is really low quality. It makes it difficult to apply the product. It seems like products today are produced with the lowest quality materials to maximize the companie's profits. It's too bad. I'm going to find a better sprayer locally and transfer it over.

This stuff works great and is very effective, has very pleasant smell

I bought this Sawyer Picaridin Insect Repellent specifically for a trip to the Caribbean after reading about the infamous no-see-ums. Until you actually experience them… WOW. They are no joke! I won’t claim this spray prevented every single bite, because it didn’t, but it drastically reduced the number of bites we got, by like 90% . We found that spraying at dusk and dawn was especially important. The two-pack was perfect for our trip because our adult sons were staying in their own villa, so I sent one bottle with them and kept one at our place. We used this every morning and every night - a couple squirts on arms and legs does the trick - and it lasted the week we were there. The bottles are TSA permitted, so traveling with them was easy. Another huge plus is that the spray is odorless, absorbs quickly into the skin, isn't greasy or sticky, and didn’t stain our clothing. If you’re traveling somewhere known for no-see-ums or mosquitoes, I would absolutely add this to your packing list!

I love Picaridin Insect Repellent!. It's the only one that has consistently prevented my family from getting bitten. It worked ao well, my son came back from a field day bite free!!!
