Description

For use on clothing, tents, sleeping bags, and other outdoor gear, Sawyer Permethrin repels or kills disease-spreading ticks (Lyme disease), mosquitoes (West Nile and Zika viruses) and more than 55 other kinds of insects. Perfect for camping, backpacking, hunting, travel, backyard BBQs, picnics, and more. Permethrin insect and tick repellent adds an odorless layer of protection to shirts, jackets, pants, socks, shoes, sleeping bags, tents, netting, and other outdoor, camping, hunting, and travel gear. A University of Rhode Island study (2017) found that people wearing Permethrin-treated shoes and socks were 73.6 times less likely to have a tick bite than those wearing untreated footwear. Using it on outdoor gear also helps reduce the mosquito population in your camp and prevents ticks from attaching to you. Permethrin spray bonds to fabric fibers for up to 6 weeks (42 days) of exposure to sun or 6 washings. Sawyer Permethrin does not come out from sweat or water contact. It only degrades via UV exposure or the agitation of a washing machine. Specially formulated not to stain or damage your clothing, other fabrics, gear, and equipment, it's odorless after drying and is as effective as 100% DEET. To apply, spray Permethrin directly onto clothing and gear with a slow sweeping motion, keeping the bottle about 6 to 8 inches away, and treating each side of the garment for about 30 seconds. The EPA recommends using 4.5 ounces of Permethrin to spray each outfit (consisting of shirt, pants, and socks). Maximize protection by pairing with Sawyer Picaridin topical repellent for the skin.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.

  • Worked fantastically with other prevention steps -- ALMOST NO MOSQUITO BITES AFTER NINE DAYS IN THE JUNGLE!!!
Style: 24-oz Trigger Spray
I just came back from a nine-day trip deep into the Peruvian jungle -- into the reserve part of Manu National Park. It was an incredible journey! Fantastic nature, and incredibly isolated and pristine (an area never disturbed, and still inhabited by non-contacted peoples). But ahead of time I was extremely nervous about mosquito bites, because twice in the last ten years or so I have been to the emergency clinic with dozens of bug bites and a very strong allergic reaction to them. I practically obsessed over what to do to prevent mosquito bites as much as possible, because I have had such a strong reaction to bug bites, and the jungle is certainly full of mosquitos and other biting insects!. I am very happy to say that everything that I did worked -- I got very few bites, and I didn't even notice them until I searched for them. Everyone else in our group got plenty of bites, and they were itching like crazy, but not me!!! Here is what I did and what I brought: 1. I have a Peruvian friend who is a doctor. He told me to take Vitamin B complex every day for a week before the trip and every day in the jungle. I used these: Nature Made Super B Complex Tablets, Value Size, 360 Count 2. I bought two bottles of this Permethrin spray and very carefully sprayed ALL of my clothing, carefully following the directions on the bottle. I sprayed all of my clothing at home in my garage, and then packed it all in these giant ziploc bags: Ziploc Big Bag Double Zipper, Large, 5-Count (by the way, those bags were great for packing everything and really helped to keep things from getting too damp in the 100% humidity jungle!). I sprayed the three pairs of hiking pants I brought, three long-sleeved shirts, all of my thick hiking socks, and my sunhat (both sides). I put extra spray at all openings - pant cuffs, shirt cuffs, and shirt button seams.While there I always tucked my pants legs into my socks. The tour company had suggested wearing a cotton t-short under long-sleeved shirts because the mosquitoes bite through clothing, but I never did that; I didn't need to as I just didn't get bites through the Permethrin-sprayed clothing. This stuff really worked, as I did not get bites through my Permethrin-treated clothing! 3. I took the antihistamine Loratidine (generic for Claritin, this one: GoodSense Allergy Relief Loratadine Tablets, 10 mg, 30 Count Bottle ) as a prophylactic every morning, to prevent my strong reaction to bites. This worked GREAT -- I did get a few bites, as I could see the tiny red dots, but I didn't feel anything at all from them! I took only enough for the days that I was in the jungle. In the two days in Cusco before returning to the US I started itching a little on a couple of bites. In hindsight I should have taken a few extra tablets to take in the next few days after the trip. (Another hint - some people get drowsy on this stuff; I tested it first at home before going on my trip. There are other OTC non-drowsy antihistamines you can try if this doesn't work, like the generic for Zyrtec.) 4. I bought DEET. In my paranoia about insect bites and my prior reaction to them, I bought several different versions of DEET -- spray, wipes, and lotion, but I used only this spray, and only three times: Repel 94101 6-Ounce Sportsmen Max Insect Repellent 40-Percent DEET Pump Spray, Case Pack of 1 . That bottle is plenty for lots of people; to minimize weight and volume in your pack you might even want to put it into a smaller travel-sized spray bottle. I sprayed the backs of my hands, and then wiped from the backs of my hands onto my neck, cheeks, and forehead. 5. I had a mosquito head net that I purchased many years ago. Amazon has others but not the one that I have, so I can't give a link. I used this only two or three times when the mosquitos were especially thick. I had sprayed this also with Permethrin before leaving home. 6. I also brought with me an over the counter anti-itch creme (hydrocortisone), and a prescription-strength anti-itch creme (Clobetisol). I never used either one!!!!! But my travelling partners sure were happy that I had it so they could use it! I also had Sting Eze ( StingEze Max2 Insect Bite Itch Relief Dauber, 0.5-Ounce ), but this too I never needed, and my travelling friends were very happy to use. I worried a LOT before the trip about getting mosquito bites and my reaction to them. Really worried. I questioned my sanity for going! But with this Permethrin spray and everything else I did to prep, I had NO problems with mosquitos and I was able to totally enjoy the trip!!!! ... show more

  • Golden Spray!
Style: 24-oz Trigger Spray
This spray was perfect! I use this to spray our outfits before I visit to South America. We got very minimal mosquito bites. There was a b that landed on the ground in the garage where I had sprayed all of our clothes, and you could see it dying. You may think it's cruel, but this bee was about to sting my child and landed on the ground. The ground took care of it. ... show more

  • Works well repelling ticks but not as well for mosquitoes.
Style: 24-oz Trigger Spray
I have ordered this before and it is extremely effective. It is made to be used on clothing. Do not apply directly to skin. We generally hang the clothes outside, spray the product on and let them hang outside to dry. Will survive several washes in washing machine. You should NOT use on pets. Product can be Toxic, especially for cats. That being said, we have a cat and she has had no problems with it on our clothing . If you are a fisherman, do not get on your hands or fishing gear. It will repell fish extremely well . Make sure you read, understand, and follow the directions for this product. ... show more

  • Unhelpful sprayer
Style: 24-oz Trigger Spray
I'm sure this product works fine, it's been very well reviewed both by customers and independent labs. But it loses a star because I found the sprayer mechanism to be pretty frustrating. You can choose between either a steam/jet or a cone-shaped mist; not clear why anyone would need the stream, the cone is the setting to use. But the cone pattern on an item of clothing means (duh) you've got a hole in the middle that is uncovered, unsprayed. Given the emphasis the manufacturer makes on complete coverage, one has to spray and spray and spray some more to make sure everything is covered...leaving some sections overly saturated. I tried moving the nozzle while I sprayed, which improved things a bit, but still couldn't help but spray too much over much of the item in order to get complete coverage of every square inch. Frustrating. ... show more

  • Dr recommended. Surprisingly good
Style: 24-oz Trigger Spray
My husband's legs looked like connect the dots after getting bit by mosquitoes because he was stubborn and didn't use this spray; meanwhile my baby and I came back from our 7 day Vaca with maybe 10 bites between us...also because I got lazy with the replication of spray. Definitely works. Will buy again. I look forward to using this spray all summer on trails and around the campfires ... show more

  • Works!
Style: 24-oz Trigger Spray
Crawled through all kinds of vegetation during spring turkey season and never had a single tick on me. It also kept the mosquitoes and other bugs out of my blind. It does exactly what they advertise. I will never use anything else.

  • Easy spray for clothing and tarps/tents
Style: 24-oz Trigger Spray
Lasts up to 6 weeks before treating again. Repells pretty much every type of bug from ticks to the most persistent flying bugs. Spray on your clothes, let dry thoroughly and enjoy going outside.

  • Great product, I Question Amazon Pricing
Style: 24-oz Trigger Spray
I ordered this product in April for $14 per 24 oz spray bottle. Ordered it again this month and paid 25% more a month later. It's a good product, but Amazon is gouging folks on it.
