Wirecutter’s Most Popular Picks of July 2024
Everyone should avoid bug bites, which are annoying at best and debilitating (or even lethal) in worst-case scenarios.
For a bug repellent that’s safe and effective—and that won’t stink or leave a puddle of oil on your skin—skip the DEET and get a picaridin formula, like Sawyer Products 20% Picaridin Insect Repellent. It’s the best bottle of bug spray we found after testing over 25 repellents and talking to everyone from the EPA to the American Mosquito Control Association.
