## Overview

Sawyer’s 20% Picaridin Insect Repellent Pump Spray offers up to 12 hours of effective, DEET-free protection against mosquitoes, ticks, biting flies, and gnats. Its non-greasy, fragrance-free formula dries quickly without harming plastics or synthetic coatings, making it safe for skin and gear alike. Trusted by health experts and top-rated by WireCutter, it’s the go-to choice for families and outdoor enthusiasts seeking reliable, comfortable insect defense.

## Description

An effective alternative to DEET that’s safe for the whole family, Sawyer’s 20% Picaridin Insect Repellent provides effective protection from disease-spreading ticks (Lyme disease, tick-borne encephalitis) and mosquitoes (West Nile, Dengue, and Zika viruses). More effective at repelling biting flies than DEET, it's also effective at repelling stable flies, black flies, gnats, chiggers, and sand flies. Very comfortable to wear on your skin, it's ideal for all your outdoor adventures, from camping, backpacking, hunting, and fishing to backyard BBQs, sporting events, days at the park, and more. Sawyer 20% Picaridin topical spray is effective for up to 12 hours against mosquitoes and ticks (14 hours for the lotion), and the spray and lotion provide up to 8 hours of protection against biting flies, gnats, chiggers, and sand flies. Both the non-greasy, fragrance-free spray and lotion dry quickly and won't damage plastics or synthetic coatings — safe for use on clothing, backpacks, watches, sunglasses, fishing line, firearm finishes, and more. Available in a variety of spray and lotion bottle sizes, Sawyer 20% Picaridin also comes in individual 0.34-ounce lotion packets that are great for everyday use and small enough for carrying in a pocket, purse, or backpack. The top-rated bug repellent by WireCutter/New York Times (May, 2020), it's also considered to be the repellent of first choice by the Public Health Agency of Canada’s Canadian Advisory Committee on Tropical Medicine and Travel for travelers 6 months to 12 years of age. Maximize protection by pairing with Sawyer Permethrin tick and insect repellent spray for clothing and gear. Since 1984, Sawyer has used technological advancements to create products that keep you outdoors — from the backcountry to the backyard — including insect repellents for both skin and clothing, water filters for camping and emergencies, and sun protection.

Review: Great alternative to deet - Did some research and this was suggested over spays containing deet. Used by myself and partner during two weeks in Costa Rica. Seemed to be very effective. We only had a couple of bites each while others using things like Jungle Formula had many more. It doesn't damage clothes or equipment, not sticky and no bad smell. One application lasts hours. Definitely recommend
Review: It actually does work! - I actually think this stuff works! I’m a keen gardener based in the south of England and this summer have been eaten alive by mosquitoes and midges, even after spraying 50% deet. I read that this can work even when deet doesn’t and so decided to give it a go. It is a lovely moisturising cream that does not feel like it has any chemicals or nasties in it. Kind of like putting suncream on! I have now used it for the last couple of weeks especially at that 6-7pm danger time in the garden. Touch wood, but currently I have to say that I have no bites. This is in contrast to losing sleep every night through the itch/scratch/itch cycle previously from all the horrendous bites I had. I really do hope this product continues to work in the way it has so far, fingers crossed! I do recommend it.
