Premium Permethrin Insect Repellent for Clothing & Gear

Sawyer Permethrin is the ultimate solution for outdoor enthusiasts seeking protection against disease-spreading insects such as ticks (which spread Lyme disease) and mosquitoes (carriers of West Nile and Zika viruses). With the ability to repel or kill over 55 different types of insects, this insect and tick repellent is perfect for use on clothing, tents, sleeping bags, and other outdoor gear during activities like camping, backpacking, hunting, or travel.

A study conducted by the University of Rhode Island in 2017 found that individuals wearing Permethrin-treated shoes and socks were 73.6 times less likely to experience a tick bite compared to those wearing untreated footwear. By applying Permethrin to your outdoor gear, you not only protect yourself from insect bites but also help reduce the mosquito population in your campsite.

This odorless spray bonds to fabric fibers for up to 6 weeks or 6 washings, providing long-lasting protection without being affected by sweat or water. It only degrades when exposed to UV rays or the agitation of a washing machine. Additionally, Sawyer Permethrin is specially formulated to not stain or damage clothing, fabrics, or gear, and is as effective as 100% DEET.

To apply, simply spray Permethrin onto your clothing and gear with a slow sweeping motion from a distance of 6 to 8 inches, ensuring that each side is treated for approximately 30 seconds. The EPA recommends using 4.5 ounces of Permethrin per outfit (shirt, pants, and socks) for maximum protection. For added defense, pair Permethrin with Sawyer Picaridin topical repellent for the skin.

Sawyer Products is dedicated to providing innovative solutions for protection against the elements, from sun and bugs to water and injuries. Their Permethrin spray is proven to be effective against a variety of insects, offering a trustworthy defense against outdoor nuisances. Stay safe and enjoy your outdoor adventures with Sawyer Permethrin insect and tick repellent.
