    • Best bug repellent - spared from being a bug blood buffet in Asia
Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 2) Style: Lotion
Works extremely well. I usually use this in New England summers, and never worry about bug bites even after taking a couple of dips into the ocean. Out of curiosity and my friends personal horror stories of "local repellents" not working, I packed this lotion with me to try on a vacation to Southeast China, Hong Kong, and Macau. I applied the lotion everywhere before going out in the morning, sweat buckets throughout the whole day, and no bug bites. Not one bite for the whole day - even out in the parks or near the lakes at night. At most I felt the bugs land but not bite. As for an accidental control/baseline/learned lesson situation - I forgot to apply it around my ankles and feet once during my month long trip, and quickly had 4-6 swelling bites concentrated around my ankles and feet within an hour of being outside. Definitely get this repellent if bugs love feasting on you. Also recommend getting medium to large hydrocolloid patches to treat/stop the itching of potential bites from user error missed lotioning spots. ... show more

    • Even in the Amazon
Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Style: Pump Spray
Wow.. This repellent was amazing on the Amazon in Peru.. I went on a mission trip with an amazing group of people and we visited several villages. We even visited a village that had active malaria. I would spray it on my clothes and shoes and let it dry and I never had a mosquito or flies bother or bite me. I will continue to use this product even here in SC. I totally recommend it.. also it did not have a smell either. ... show more

    • Great Product, Poor Shipping Container.
Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Style: Lotion
This stuff works! However, the package it shipped in allowed the bottle to be smashed and I lost product in the plastic bag it was shipped in. That’s why I only gave it 4 stars.

    • Effective Protection in a Convenient Lotion
Size: 4 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Style: Lotion
If you're looking for a reliable insect repellent that doesn't compromise on comfort, the Sawyer Products SP564 Premium Insect Repellent Lotion with 20% Picaridin is a standout choice. Exceptional Protection Against Biting Insects This lotion contains 20% Picaridin, which has proven to be as effective as DEET in repelling a wide range of pests. In my personal experience, it provided up to 14 hours of protection against mosquitoes and ticks, and up to 8 hours against flies, gnats, and chiggers. Whether you're hiking in the woods or enjoying a backyard barbecue, this lotion keeps biting insects at bay. Non-Greasy and Odorless Formula One of the biggest advantages is its non-greasy texture. The lotion absorbs quickly into the skin without leaving a sticky residue, making it comfortable to wear all day. It's also virtually odorless, so you won't be left with that strong chemical smell common with other repellents. Skin-Friendly and Suitable for the Whole Family The formula is gentle on the skin, which is great for those with sensitivities. I've used it on both adults and children without any irritation. Plus, it's safe to apply on clothing and gear without causing damage or stains. Convenient Size and Easy Application The 4-ounce tube is perfect for travel and fits easily into backpacks or pockets. The lotion format allows for precise application, ensuring you cover all exposed areas thoroughly. This makes it more efficient than aerosol sprays that can miss spots or get carried away by the wind. Why Choose Picaridin Over DEET? Picaridin is a newer repellent that offers similar efficacy to DEET but with several benefits: No Damage to Gear: Unlike DEET, Picaridin doesn't harm plastics or synthetic materials. Pleasant to Use: It's less oily and has no strong odor. Safe and Effective: Provides long-lasting protection without compromising safety. Pros: Long-lasting insect protection Non-greasy, fast-absorbing lotion Odorless and gentle on skin Safe for use on clothing and gear Compact and travel-friendly size Cons: Requires reapplication after swimming or heavy sweating Final Verdict The Sawyer Products SP564 Premium Insect Repellent Lotion is a must-have for outdoor enthusiasts and anyone looking to protect themselves from biting insects comfortably and effectively. Its superior formulation and ease of use make it a top choice among insect repellents on the market. Highly recommended for peace of mind during outdoor activities. ... show more

    • Tired of buying 100's of cans of DEET. Buy 1 quart of this instead.
Size: 32 Fl Oz (Pack of 1) Style: Lotion
This stuff is awesome. We purchased some waterfront land on the ocean in Va. and have an off-grid camp set up while we slowly build and upgrade the property into our eventual retirement home/farm. The tick, mosquito, fly and gnat populations in this area are insane. I despise ticks especially since one tried to kill me by infecting me with tick fever when I was 5 years old and another gave my son Lymes Disease and put him in intensive care when he was also 5. Both of us were sent to John's Hopkins as 5 year olds because of ticks. I also hate bugspray. It's expensive, the cans of spray don't last long enough and if you leave them sit they'll eventually become empty on their own so stocking up doesn't help much. I started looking for another solution and in 2021 I bought 1 quart of this Picaridin cream. I'm still using the same quart in 2024. Full disclosure, I was the only one in my family that had been using it because everyone else is lazy. You can't just spray yourself real quick and be done. You need to put it on like sunscreen but it doesn't take that much. I'm 6'-2" and 240lbs. I use maybe 2 1/2 squirts of the pump to cover my feet, legs, arms, neck and head. I even rub a little through my hair. I spray my shirt with some form of DEET before I put it on. That's it. It lasts pretty much all day, except the mosquitoes will get me through my shirt later in the day because the DEET will wear off. My family will go through several cans of bugspray to my 2 squirts of Picaridin. The last trip out they finally realized that bugspray actually kinda sucks. So I'm on here buying another quart because I don't want to run out. I bought some cheap rubber gloves from Harbor Freight that I've started wearing when I put on the cream so I'm not eating it off my fingers later in the day. It doesn't wash off really easy which is a good thing, especially if you are a sweater or get in the water. Getting in the water will deminish it's effectiveness but I think it sticks on to you better than spray without a doubt. This stuff also dries quickly, the feeling of it on your skin is much more comfortable than bugspray and it doesn't smell nearly as bad. Mosquitoes absolutely hate it. I've watched them turn complete 180's as soon as they make contact with me. Gnats will land on you but they will not bite. They can still be pretty annoying if you are fishing at night because they'll swarm and tickle you but they do the same with all the other repellants. It repels chiggers and ticks great but if you are spending time in the places I do, you still need to check your underwear band and the other nooks and crannies down in that area where you didn't apply anything. The value this stuff brings is undeniable. $50 for a quart that could last you years as opposed to an $8 can of OFF that will last 1 person a couple days at best and that is assuming you use it up before it dries up on its own, unused. That's it. It is good stuff. In my opinion, and I think I would know, it is more effective, last longer, feels cleaner and is way more affordable then the other altermatives. If you get into the outdoors a lot, buy a quart. You won't regret it. ... show more
