When it comes to enjoying the great outdoors, having effective insect protection is essential, and Sawyer Products' SP567 Premium Insect Repellent is your go-to solution. This formulation features 20% Picaridin, an effective alternative to DEET that provides a comfortable and safe experience for the whole family. It's designed to shield your skin from harmful insects like ticks and mosquitoes which can carry serious diseases like Lyme disease and Zika virus.
What makes Sawyer's repellent stand out is its broad-spectrum effectiveness. Not only does it repel disease-spreading mosquitoes and ticks, but it is also more effective against biting flies than DEET. The formula is effective against black flies, stable flies, gnats, chiggers, and sand flies, making it versatile for various outdoor activities. The repellent can keep these pests at bay for up to 12 hours against mosquitoes and ticks when applied as a spray, with a longer protection time of 14 hours for the lotion format. It’s also effective for up to 8 hours against gnats and chiggers.
The non-greasy, fragrance-free nature of this repellent means it applies smoothly without leaving a sticky residue, drying quickly to allow for a comfortable wear. Importantly, it won't damage plastics or synthetic materials, making it safe for use on clothing, backpacks, fishing gear, and more. The variety of packaging options, including individual 0.34-ounce lotion packets, makes it easy to carry in a pocket, purse, or backpack for on-the-go use.
Recognized as a top choice by WireCutter/New York Times in May 2020 and endorsed by public health officials for families with children aged 6 months to 12 years, you can trust Sawyer for your outdoor adventures. Remember, for maximum protection, pair it with Sawyer Permethrin spray for clothing and gear to keep insects away effectively.
Since 1984, Sawyer has committed itself to creating innovative outdoor products, from insect repellents to water filtration systems, making your time spent in nature more enjoyable and worry-free.
