20% DEET Premium Family Insect Repellent Controlled Release

Excellent. No smell from this product. Applied under sun cream and had no bites at all.

This product work just outstanding. It lasts for 24 hours I put it on each morning well in a third world country, let it dry then I would throw the sunscreen over the top and I never had any issues with bugs. I could not be happier with how the product performs and also the fact that it did not have any scent that I didn't care for and the lotion felt good on my skin. If you're looking for a product that works well, this certainly fit the bill. I received the recommendation from someone who works at the CDC and I'm glad I purchased the product as when I was visiting a third world country mosquitoes and insects were not an issue for me

This is the best big spray ever! It last the whole day. While it does have a scent, it's not over-powering like sprays are and it doesn't leave your skin sticky feeling. I've previously only used the spray, which also worked well, but I hate the way it feels on your hands and skin, and if you spray your clothes and touch them it's all over your hands again. With this lotion, I do wash my hands after application, but after that, it's not greasy or sticky on your hands. We shoot archery in the woods, and in very wet areas here in the muggy Northeast. We are usually in the woods for more than 4 hours. This lotion keeps the bugs away from landing on you and keeps most from flying near you. I really appreciate the tick protection and we have not found a tick on us since using these products. We have high tick population and high rate of lyme disease in our area. I do not go into the woods or fields without this companies products on me. We treat our clothing with the permethrin and use the picardin on our skin and around clothing openings. If it's a quick walk, I use the spray, for longer times, I reach for this lotion.

I had been using a standard brand insect repellent, even the top product in their lineup, and it felt like I was wearing mosquito attractant. I was getting eaten alive instead of the occasional bite I was used to. I picked up this stuff and applied it to my ankles and wrists once a day in the morning. One week later, I have not been bitten once. It worked extremely well for me. I am officially a believer in Sawyer Products 20 percent DEET Premium Family Insect Repellent Controlled Release.

I am one of those people who really attract mosquitoes and other flying and crawling pests. If there is one in the area and a crowd of people, I get the bite. Unfortunately, aside from the common dangers, I am becoming more and more sensitive to those bites and a complete protection became a must. Now, for the first time in decades, I'd spend an entire 3 day weekend without one insect landing on me. In clothes treated with Permethrin Sawyer Premium Permethrin Clothing Insect Repellent Trigger Spray, 24-Ounce and this controlled release repellent on the exposed skin (face, neck, ears, hands and feet) I had a bliss of a time. No more waiving hands, slapping, smacking, scratching, rubbing, running, jumping and stumping. After I spread the lotion, I washed the palms of my hands. Unlike sprays and other forms of insect repellent that I used before, this product did not transfer to my hands every time I touched any part of treated skin, thus allowing me to handle food. It also didn't feel sticky or greasy, once applied I practically forgot I was waring it. One application lasted until shower, but I also reapplied after wading and getting really wet when kayaking, just to be on the safe side. Thank you, Sawyer, for great products.
