Features

Sawyer's 20% Picaridin insect and tick repellent offers an effective, family-safe alternative to DEET, providing reliable protection against a range of disease-spreading insects. It guards against ticks, including those that carry Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis, as well as mosquitoes that spread West Nile, Dengue and Zika viruses. Notably more effective than DEET at repelling biting flies, it also works against stable flies, black flies, gnats, chiggers and sand flies. Comfortable to wear on the skin, it's perfect for all your outdoor adventures, including camping, backpacking, hunting, fishing, backyard BBQs, sporting events and days at the park. Sawyer 20% Picaridin provides up to 12 hr of protection against mosquitoes and ticks (14 hr with the lotion) and up to 8 hr of protection against biting flies, gnats, chiggers and sand flies. Both the non-greasy, fragrance-free spray and lotion dry quickly and are safe for use on clothing, backpacks, watches, sunglasses, fishing line, firearm finishes and more. Sawyer's Picaridin is comes in various sizes, including individual 0.34 oz lotion packets that are portable and perfect for everyday use. This top-rated repellent by WireCutter/New York Times (May 2020) is also recommended by the Public Health Agency of Canada's Canadian Advisory Committee on Tropical Medicine and Travel for travelers aged 6 months to 12 years. For added protection, pair with Sawyer Permethrin for clothing and gear.
