  No odor and it really works
  Oct 4th, 2016

  I sprayed my hunting attire while adhering to the instructions. I've been hunting for a while, moving through tall grasses and scrub while seated in a tree stand, and I haven't encountered any fire ants, jiggers, or mosquitoes. I used to be eaten up by fire ants and jiggers before I met the Sawyer family, but not anymore. The clothing haven't been washed; instead, I simply air them out on a line and store them in a plastic storage tote in between searches. Excellent item for a fair price.

  Keeps bugs off.
  May 3rd, 2020

  I used it with the group I hiked the AT with and gave my son a bottle to use for maneuvers. Both instances were successful. Any odor disappears once it has dried. Although you still require bug spray for your skin, it deters creepy crawlies like spiders, ticks, and other critters. I discovered that I didn't actually need to use bug dope on the skin when the bugs weren't particularly strong. When I was trying to prepare breakfast or when I wanted to sleep, it was pleasant. The tent and tarp were sprayed, and it appeared to deter everything. I didn't locate anything in the tent, at least.

  Mosquitos no more!
  Jun 27th, 2022

  I had doubts that this would work. The fact that it appears to keep mosquitoes at bay pleases me. This was sprayed on the cushions of our patio chairs and umbrellas. We also did a little sorting with our clothing. And we spent the entire evening sitting outside with friends without being eaten alive! We sprayed everything and him because the package says you need at least 4 ounces (which is difficult to guarantee). purchased more.

  Used as roach spray
  May 23rd, 2022

  Although this product isn't advertised as a bug spray for the home, I feel like they should. The bugs where I reside in Hawaii are tough, lol. My friend told me that they had used this in their house. I made the decision to trust them because they have animals and a pool and I've never seen a bug. I can say that It works. I have to reapply frequently because the effect is temporary, lol. but it DOES WORK! I'm going to stock up. Every few days, I've been spraying, and it has kept them at away.

  No ticks while hunting in Virginia
  May 4th, 2022

  For 12 years, I have gone hunting in West Virginia and south-eastern Virginia. I always returned home to West Virginia before two years ago covered in tick and chigger bites. I have used Sawyers Permethrin for the past two years. I didn't even have a tick crawling on me. I just got two chigger bites, and they were on one leg under my sock. The socks weren't treated by me. I did treat all of my other equipment, accessories included.

  Mosquitoes bounce off fabric!
  Jun 15th, 2022

  For Acadia, this spray was applied to hiking apparel. During a soggy trek in the woods, the effectiveness became abundantly clear. We could actually see mosquitoes attempting to land on our clothing before taking off. On our journey, we received NO mosquito, fly, or tick bites. It undoubtedly endured several washings as well.

  It just works
  Aug 26th, 2021

  live in an area with many ticks and deer. This is efficient and reasonably priced for the quantity. Frequently, shoes, socks, and pant legs. What I dislike is how frequently the spray pump breaks down before the product is completely consumed. The pump has failed with only one-fourth of the bottle remaining. using a toothbrush as a last resort.

  Chiggers are not my friend
  Mar 29th, 2022

  Chiggers once bit me while trekking in Florida. I no longer leave the house without spraying down my things the night before! I frequently hike, and I haven't had any chiggers since. The only improvement I would want to see is in the spray nozzle. Never succeeds, and I have to transfer the contents into another bottle around halfway through.

  Conflicting info
  Dec 14th, 2019

  About how safe it is to use, both the bottle and the website include conflicting information. After reading the warning label on the bottle and applying it on my clothes, which worked GREAT to repel mosquitoes, I decided against using it on my son's clothes. And I would never spray it directly on my pets as instructed!
