Sawyer Products Twin Pack Permethrin Insect Repellent Spray, 24 oz

Sawyer Permethrin is a versatile insect and tick repellent spray that can be used on various outdoor gear such as clothing, tents, sleeping bags, and more. It effectively repels or kills disease-spreading ticks like Lyme disease, mosquitoes carrying West Nile and Zika viruses, and over 55 other types of insects. Whether you are camping, backpacking, hunting, or simply enjoying a backyard BBQ or picnic, Sawyer Permethrin provides an odorless layer of protection for your shirts, jackets, pants, socks, shoes, and other gear.

A study conducted by the University of Rhode Island in 2017 found that individuals wearing Permethrin-treated shoes and socks were 73.6 times less likely to be bitten by ticks compared to those with untreated footwear. By applying Permethrin to your outdoor gear, you can not only eliminate the risk of ticks attaching to you but also help reduce the mosquito population in your campsite.

Unlike other repellents, Permethrin spray bonds to fabric fibers and remains effective for up to six weeks or six washings, whichever comes first. It is resistant to sweat and water, only degrading through UV exposure or agitation in a washing machine. You don't have to worry about staining or damaging your clothing, fabrics, plastics, finished surfaces, or outdoor gear when using this spray. It is odorless after drying and as effective as 100% DEET.

To apply Permethrin, simply spray it directly onto your clothing and gear, ensuring a slow sweeping motion while keeping the bottle around 6 to 8 inches away from the fabric. Treat each side of the garment for approximately 30 seconds. The Environmental Protection Agency recommends using 4.5 ounces of Permethrin to spray each outfit consisting of a shirt, pants, and socks.

For maximum protection, you can combine Permethrin with Sawyer Picaridin topical repellent for your skin. Sawyer Products has been providing technologically advanced solutions for sun protection, bug repellent, water purification, and first aid kits for wilderness adventures. Additionally, their Permethrin spray is fragrance-free and won't leave any unpleasant scents on your clothing or gear.

So, whether you are embarking on a backpacking trip, hosting a backyard BBQ, or engaging in other outdoor activities, Sawyer Permethrin is the ideal choice to keep you protected from a wide range of insects. It is highly effective against not only ticks and mosquitoes but also chiggers, spiders, mites, and more. Each 24-ounce trigger spray bottle can treat up to five outfits, and the EPA now recommends using 4.5 ounces per outfit consisting of a shirt, pants, and socks.
