## Overview

Sawyer Premium Permethrin Insect Repellent is a fragrance-free, fabric-bonding spray that protects clothing, gear, and tents from over 55 insect species—including ticks and mosquitoes—lasting up to 6 weeks or 6 washes. Proven to reduce tick bites by 73.6 times when applied to footwear, it offers sweat and water resistance without staining or damaging fabrics, making it an essential, scientifically backed shield for outdoor enthusiasts.

## Description

For use on clothing, tents, sleeping bags, and other outdoor gear, Sawyer Permethrin repels or kills disease-spreading ticks (Lyme disease), mosquitoes (West Nile and Zika viruses) and more than 55 other kinds of insects. Perfect for camping, backpacking, hunting, travel, backyard BBQs, picnics, and more. Permethrin insect and tick repellent adds an odorless layer of protection to shirts, jackets, pants, socks, shoes, sleeping bags, tents, netting, and other outdoor, camping, hunting, and travel gear. A University of Rhode Island study (2017) found that people wearing Permethrin-treated shoes and socks were 73.6 times less likely to have a tick bite than those wearing untreated footwear. Using it on outdoor gear also helps reduce the mosquito population in your camp and prevents ticks from attaching to you. Permethrin spray bonds to fabric fibers for up to 6 weeks (42 days) of exposure to sun or 6 washings. Sawyer Permethrin does not come out from sweat or water contact. It only degrades via UV exposure or the agitation of a washing machine. Specially formulated not to stain or damage your clothing, other fabrics, gear, and equipment, it's odorless after drying and is as effective as 100% DEET. To apply, spray Permethrin directly onto clothing and gear with a slow sweeping motion, keeping the bottle about 6 to 8 inches away, and treating each side of the garment for about 30 seconds. The EPA recommends using 4.5 ounces of Permethrin to spray each outfit (consisting of shirt, pants, and socks). Maximize protection by pairing with Sawyer Picaridin topical repellent for the skin. Sawyer Products has offered the best, most technologically advanced solutions for protection against sun, bugs, water, and injuries – everything from first aid kits developed for wilderness to point-of-use water filters that filter contaminated water to levels cleaner than U. S. bottled water.

Review: An Absolute Must-Have for the Outdoors - This stuff is liquid gold if you spend any time hiking, camping, or just being in the woods. I treat my clothes, socks, shoes, and backpack with this at the beginning of the season, and the difference it makes is incredible. Application is straightforward. I just hang my gear outside, spray everything down until it's damp, and let it dry completely. Once it's dry, there's no odor at all. The most important part is that it actually works. I've gone from picking multiple ticks off myself after a hike to finding none at all. It's also extremely effective against mosquitoes and other annoying bugs. The protection lasts for several weeks and even through multiple washes, which is super convenient. Using this spray has become a non negotiable part of my outdoor prep. It provides peace of mind and lets me enjoy my time outside without worrying about ticks and bug bites. I can't recommend it highly enough.
Review: Sawyer Permethrin: Absolute Confidence Against Ticks and Bugs! - I honestly cannot recommend Sawyer Products Premium Permethrin Insect Repellent for Clothing enough. If you spend any serious time outdoors, especially in areas with high tick and insect populations, this is an essential part of your gear preparation. The permethrin formula is designed specifically for treating clothing, tents, and gear, offering long-lasting protection that survives multiple washings. The spray is easy to apply (just follow the directions to let it dry completely), and it adds a powerful invisible shield to your fabrics. I recently put this product to the ultimate, unplanned test. While hiking in a heavily wooded area known for ticks, I accidentally stepped directly into what I can only describe as a tick nest. I was completely horrified, expecting to find dozens crawling all over me. However, after a thorough check of my treated pants, boots, and socks when I returned, I didn't have a single tick attached to me! That level of confidence and protection is priceless. This product is a game-changer for hunters, hikers, gardeners, and anyone who wants genuine peace of mind from biting insects. It works better than anything else I have ever tried. Pros: Extremely effective, especially against ticks. Long-lasting protection on clothing (lasts through washing). Easy to apply to fabric and gear. Essential for high-risk outdoor activities.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I try to hunt as scent free as possible. Anyone use this on their scentlok clothing?**
A: I use this product regularly in the warm months of the year. I am an avid coyote hunter and I have never been busted by the coyotes nose due to this product, that I'm aware of. 
Of course I descent and play the wind but this stuff seems to keep me scent free after it's allowed to dry.
Also, I've had zero issues with ticks, chiggers or mosquitoes on treated clothing. 
Great product!

**Q: Does this protect against bed bugs?  Could I use it to spray over a sleeping bag that I will use for a month is hostels, to avoid bed bugs?**
A: Hi, while i don't know to what extent an item like a sleeping bag laying for hours and hours will do, yes i can confirm it will help to protect it.  I haven't used it on a sleeping bag but I do spray all of my clothes and the suitcases for this reason.  They also advise not to put suitcases on beds in hotels to limit the exposure and to keep them off the floor on the bag stand that most hotels provide or on a desk or table. It will prevent against hitchhikers.  But as for a sleeping bag that has a large amount of exposure, but it should last at least 3 - 4 washes as well if you launder the sleeping bag while on the road. I definitely would recommend this spray, but again the best way to check for bed bugs is to inspect the mattress edges for the little buggers and see if you see any.  (also get the blacklight app for your smartphone for other things - just remember to turn your brightness all the way up when using it).  Happy travels.

**Q: If i purchase 2, then i get prime shipping. but, does the product expire? i won't use two full canisters in a year.**
A: Sawyer Permethrin Insect Repellent Treatment for Clothing, Gear, and Tents has a shelf life of 10 years if properly stored in a cool/dry location away from direct UV exposure.

**Q: What about roaches? I'm a social worker who has to go into infested houses; will spraying this on my shoes keep roaches off of me?**
A: I have had great luck with this product. The permetherine is the key to killing these pests. the same main pest killer in Frontline for dogs. Lasts well in the field.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked fantastically with other prevention steps -- ALMOST NO MOSQUITO BITES AFTER NINE DAYS IN THE JUNGLE!!!
*by A***H on June 1, 2016*

I just came back from a nine-day trip deep into the Peruvian jungle -- into the reserve part of Manu National Park. It was an incredible journey! Fantastic nature, and incredibly isolated and pristine (an area never disturbed, and still inhabited by non-contacted peoples). But ahead of time I was extremely nervous about mosquito bites, because twice in the last ten years or so I have been to the emergency clinic with dozens of bug bites and a very strong allergic reaction to them. I practically obsessed over what to do to prevent mosquito bites as much as possible, because I have had such a strong reaction to bug bites, and the jungle is certainly full of mosquitos and other biting insects!. I am very happy to say that everything that I did worked -- I got very few bites, and I didn't even notice them until I searched for them. Everyone else in our group got plenty of bites, and they were itching like crazy, but not me!!! Here is what I did and what I brought: 1. I have a Peruvian friend who is a doctor. He told me to take Vitamin B complex every day for a week before the trip and every day in the jungle. I used these: Nature Made Super B Complex Tablets, Value Size, 360 Count 2. I bought two bottles of this Permethrin spray and very carefully sprayed ALL of my clothing, carefully following the directions on the bottle. I sprayed all of my clothing at home in my garage, and then packed it all in these giant ziploc bags: Ziploc Big Bag Double Zipper, Large, 5-Count (by the way, those bags were great for packing everything and really helped to keep things from getting too damp in the 100% humidity jungle!). I sprayed the three pairs of hiking pants I brought, three long-sleeved shirts, all of my thick hiking socks, and my sunhat (both sides). I put extra spray at all openings - pant cuffs, shirt cuffs, and shirt button seams.While there I always tucked my pants legs into my socks. The tour company had suggested wearing a cotton t-short under long-sleeved shirts because the mosquitoes bite through clothing, but I never did that; I didn't need to as I just didn't get bites through the Permethrin-sprayed clothing. This stuff really worked, as I did not get bites through my Permethrin-treated clothing! 3. I took the antihistamine Loratidine (generic for Claritin, this one: GoodSense Allergy Relief Loratadine Tablets, 10 mg, 30 Count Bottle ) as a prophylactic every morning, to prevent my strong reaction to bites. This worked GREAT -- I did get a few bites, as I could see the tiny red dots, but I didn't feel anything at all from them! I took only enough for the days that I was in the jungle. In the two days in Cusco before returning to the US I started itching a little on a couple of bites. In hindsight I should have taken a few extra tablets to take in the next few days after the trip. (Another hint - some people get drowsy on this stuff; I tested it first at home before going on my trip. There are other OTC non-drowsy antihistamines you can try if this doesn't work, like the generic for Zyrtec.) 4. I bought DEET. In my paranoia about insect bites and my prior reaction to them, I bought several different versions of DEET -- spray, wipes, and lotion, but I used only this spray, and only three times: Repel 94101 6-Ounce Sportsmen Max Insect Repellent 40-Percent DEET Pump Spray, Case Pack of 1 . That bottle is plenty for lots of people; to minimize weight and volume in your pack you might even want to put it into a smaller travel-sized spray bottle. I sprayed the backs of my hands, and then wiped from the backs of my hands onto my neck, cheeks, and forehead. 5. I had a mosquito head net that I purchased many years ago. Amazon has others but not the one that I have, so I can't give a link. I used this only two or three times when the mosquitos were especially thick. I had sprayed this also with Permethrin before leaving home. 6. I also brought with me an over the counter anti-itch creme (hydrocortisone), and a prescription-strength anti-itch creme (Clobetisol). I never used either one!!!!! But my travelling partners sure were happy that I had it so they could use it! I also had Sting Eze ( StingEze Max2 Insect Bite Itch Relief Dauber, 0.5-Ounce ), but this too I never needed, and my travelling friends were very happy to use. I worried a LOT before the trip about getting mosquito bites and my reaction to them. Really worried. I questioned my sanity for going! But with this Permethrin spray and everything else I did to prep, I had NO problems with mosquitos and I was able to totally enjoy the trip!!!!
