When maximum protection against insect bites is needed or desired, the ideal solution has been to apply DEET to exposed skin and wear permethrin-treated clothing. An extended-duration non-DEET insect repellent (Sawyer 20% picaridin®) is now available in the U.S., and is just as effective as DEET. In fact, both the CDC and the Wold Health Organization (WHO) are now recommending 20% picaridin repellents as an effective non-DEET alternative for travel to countries where there are insect-transmitted tropical and infectious diseases.
One of the best things about permethrin is its length of effectiveness per application. Permethrin-treated clothing protects up to 6 weeks and through 6 washings, whichever comes first. Our Fite Bite Kit with permethrin and Sawyer 20% picaridin gives you the best of both worlds: Long-lasting, effective protection.
