Permethrin Premium Insect Repellent
   [SP657]
- 24 oz. trigger spray
   [SP649] - 12 oz. pump spray
   [SP602] - 9 oz. pump spray

For use on clothing, tents, and other gear, Sawyer Permethrin products not only repel insects, they actually kill ticks, mosquitoes, chiggers, mites and more than 55 other kinds of insects on contact. The active ingredient, Permethrin, is a synthetic molecule similar to pyrethrum which is taken from the Chrysanthemum flower. When applied to clothing, Permethrin binds to the fabric eliminating the risk of over-exposure to the skin. Permethrin is odorless when dry, and will not stain or damage clothing, fabrics, plastics, finished surfaces, or any of your outdoor gear. A single application lasts 6 washings. Always follow the Directions for Use on the package label.

Ultra 30™ Liposome Controlled Release
   [SP533]
- 3 oz.
   [SP534] - 4 oz.

This Liposome-based repellent is the newest advancement in insect repellent technology. Similar to the earlier generation of polymer-based controlled release systems (like 3M® Ultrathon), the Liposome envelops the DEET and slowly time-releases it as needed, thereby extending the effectiveness of the repellent. Unlike polymers, however, liposomes are a natural compound which is more comfortable to the skin and easier to wear. The Liposome base enables the 30% DEET lotion to be non-greasy, with little to no odor. Ultra 30™ is also non-staining, resists perspiration, and is effective for up to 11 hours. Airline approved size.
