Permethrin Tick and Bug Spray

Sawyer Permethrin Pump Spray - 6 Ounce

Sawyer Permethrin Pump Spray – 6 Ounce

Insect killer and repellent for your clothing is effective against ticks, chiggers, mites and mosquitoes for up to 6 weeks. Non-aerosol pump bottle contains 6-oz. of repellent, or enough to coat 2 full outfits; a full outfit consists of shirt, trousers and socks. Repellent should be applied outdoors and before clothing is worn; hang clothing and spray, let dry for 2 hours (4 hours in humid conditions). One treatment will last up to six washings or six weeks before clothing has to be treated again. Effective against ticks that carry Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Contains permethrin, the same active ingredient that is also used in Duranon™ and Permanone®.

I have used Sawyer Permethrin Pump Spray – 6 Ounce with very good results. Having had Lyme Disease, from deer ticks, a few times – protection from these pest is paramount to me. Another benefit is that it also keeps away most other insects you will encounter surveying in the field.

I rate this product 3 RODS out of a total possible 4 RODS.
