Good Product, Not So Good Pump Sprayer

Did a good job repelling bugs, but the pump sprayed did not work well and was difficult to apply.

Finally Safe From Bites

I’m very pleased with this product. Off and other common products never fully protected me from mosquitos and they smelled terrible. When I wear this, the mosquitos leave me alone and it doesn’t smell nearly as bad. I do think the aerosol is easier to use, but this is still worth it.

Great Liquid, Bad Container.

Took this on the plane to South America and it leaked all over my luggage. This stuff is a good, effective alternative to DEET, but they need to use a better container.

Effectiveness P Lus

This product is effective and does not damage clothing or other items. Spraying it onto clothing will effectively help prevent ticks from attaching to the items, and it is safe for a skin repellent as well.

Great Product That Performs As Stated

Durable product that performs as stated. Used in various locations in the USA

Works Well Repels Insects.

Repels insects from exposed skin. Works well when used with Permethrin for gear.

Excellent Insect Repellent

I hate insect repellents, as they are usually greasy, once applied. This product is not. Once applied and rubbed in, I could not tell that I had it on my skin. I chose this over products containing DEET as they can be harmful to some plastics, like those used in cell phones and cameras. Since I would be handling these items frequently, I didn't want to take chances. This product worked very well. I spent a week traveling in Ecuador and never got any insect bites. On more than one occasion, I watched a mosquito land on my bare skin, then immediately leave before biting. I also used Sawyer Permethrin on my clothing. Money well spent, considering the potential risks of disease carrying insects in Ecuador.

Best Tic! Protection Ever!

Went geo caching with friends, they had deet soaked clothes, I had just sprayed on some Sawyer spray, I had not one tic! They had a dozen. We walked in the same brush!
