Most Popular Positive Comments
I genuinely get bitten while no one else around me does, which proves that I am a magnet for biting insects. This is the only thing that really works for me, plus it smells better than other things.
Most Popular Negative Comments
This solution effectively eliminates the little black gnats that are a problem in our neighborhood, which is located in the foothills of nearby mountains. Unfortunately, any bite that I get causes a significant swelling, making it necessary for me to locate something or risk being unable to leave the house. This appears to be working so far. It feels like a non-greasy lotion and has a light pleasant scent. I'm hoping I'll be able to spend this summer in our backyard!

Mar 17th, 2022Without the bothersome smell or greasiness of some other products, it is really effective. I observed the aggravated mosquitos as I sat in a severely mosquito-infested region as they flew to within 1/4 inch of my arms and legs before taking off without landing.

Jun 15th, 2022I'm a mosquito magnet of epic proportions. On a few occasions, I've been known to get 250 bites in a single night. Ticks are a major issue for us as well. I haven't had a bite since I began taking this product. Compared to other things I've tried, it works better. Insects have no chance. It's absurd for people to complain about how lotion makes their hands feel. This is lotion. Clean it with water or a wipe. People, please. First-world issues

May 27th, 2021I reside in Florida where there are a lot of pests, but the no-see-ums are the worst. The only product I have ever tried that repels both mosquitoes and no-see-ums is Sawyers 20 percent Picaridin. I won't use anything else; this is a great product that I wear while deer hunting in South Carolina during the early season. I apply it in the morning and it lasts all day and into the evening.

Apr 14th, 2021used when camping in harsh weather. Having this was a blessing. not greasy, stinky, or sticky easily absorbs and actually works. Little expensive for the size, but well worth the money. Purchased a second bottle, which you should keep on hand.

Jun 9th, 2022I have used a ton of treatments over the years, but I still occasionally get bitten—even through my clothes. Finally, this product has come through for ME. Mosquitoes adore my blood, and I quickly swell. It is not smelly or sticky. I haven't left it on for more than three hours, but if you don't perspire it off, I'm confident it will continue to function for at least five. Because it can easily enter your mouth, I advise against using it on your face. Remember to wash your hands after application because this product contains chemicals.

Jun 6th, 2021Really effective in Costa Rica. Despite hearing mosquitoes buzzing all around me, I haven't been bitten... Knowing that the repellant lasts up to 14 hours made me feel secure before going to sleep at night.

Mar 12th, 2022I brought it to Costa Rica and stayed clear of any biting insects. Typically, mosquitoes and biting insects are drawn to us. We applied the lotion carefully to all exposed skin and experienced no problems. We visited many places and spent a lot of time near water and in the rain forest. That is the actual test, in my opinion!

Apr 26th, 2022The title says it all—it works perfectly. I consistently get bit by mosquitoes. And the ones from Florida are after you. I put this on my arms and a head net, stood still, and watched as mosquitoes avoided my arms despite my attempts to coax them into landing. It was wonderful.
