Sawyer Controlled Release Insect Repellent
ProductAbout
Sawyer Controlled Release Insect Repellent is a family-friendly, 20% DEET-based lotion designed to provide long-lasting protection against mosquitoes and ticks. It features a patented Sub Micron Encapsulation process that captures DEET in a protein, slowly releasing it over time to extend effectiveness up to 11 hours. This technology not only prolongs protection but also reduces DEET absorption by 67% per application, making it safer for repeated use, especially for families with children. The repellent is odorless, non-greasy, and sweat-resistant, ensuring comfort during outdoor activities. It is compatible with sunscreen and can be used alongside Sawyer Permethrin clothing treatment for enhanced protection. Effective against mosquitoes carrying diseases like Zika, Yellow Fever, and West Nile Virus, and ticks carrying Lyme Disease, this repellent offers peace of mind for those spending time outdoors. Its water resistance and ease of use make it suitable for both backcountry adventures and backyard activities.
