| I've used this for work many times. My most recent experiences using this was in Panama in the jungles on Coiba and Rancheria islands...I spent a week on the islands only able to avoid insects physically at night with a bug net while I slept. Other than nights, nothing came near me. I was amazed at the longevity of the product while in the jungle, beach and just standing around. What amazed me was that every night we'd come together outside at the dinner table and I'd always notice the locals getting irritated at the bites and annoyances they received from the insects around and I just sat cheerfully un-annoyed. Needless to say, I recommend this to everyone! The price is better than great and the effectiveness is uncomparable. | |

| I live in the South Pacific so bugs are a constant annoyance - and sometimes a danger because they carry diseases. My family and I soaked our favorite and most worn clothing in this and notice a huge difference. The great thing is that one application lasts for several months. Combined with Sawyer's Controlled-Release bug lotion, our mosquito bites have decreased dramatically. Our adventurous boys went from getting 10 or so on an average school day to 1 or less. The one downside: the application process is a pain and the stench of the permethrin is a bit overwhelming. It's effective, but doesn't seem worth the exposure to chemicals unless you have a major bug problem. | |

| I was heading out on a 3 week backpacking trip to do the JMT. Much was to be in mosquito territory so I bought this product. It repelled mosquitos the first day...until I started to sweat. My sweat seemed to completely negate whatever effectiveness this product had. Pretty much worthless. | |
