Sawyer Products SP520 Premium Family Insect Repellent Controlled Release, 20% DEET Lotion, 4-Ounce

Product Overview

The Sawyer Products SP520 Premium Family Insect Repellent Controlled Release Lotion with 20% DEET offers powerful, long-lasting protection against mosquitoes, ticks, and other biting insects. Formulated for the whole family, this 4-ounce bottle provides hours of reliable defense without the greasy feel of traditional repellents. The controlled-release technology ensures that the active ingredient is released gradually, reducing skin absorption and extending effectiveness.

Key Features and Benefits

• Controlled-Release Technology: The lotion uses a unique microencapsulation process that slowly releases DEET over time, providing up to 11 hours of protection against mosquitoes and up to 8 hours against ticks.
• 20% DEET Concentration: The recommended concentration for effective protection against disease-carrying insects like those that transmit Zika, West Nile, Lyme disease, and Rocky Mountain spotted fever.
• Family-Friendly Formula: Safe for use on children and adults when used as directed. The lotion is non-greasy, non-sticky, and has a pleasant scent.
• Durable Protection: Designed to withstand sweat and water exposure, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, camping, gardening, and fishing.
• Easy Application: The smooth lotion spreads easily and evenly on skin, ensuring complete coverage without dripping or waste.

How to Use

Apply the lotion evenly to all exposed skin areas. Do not apply to eyes, mouth, or irritated skin. For children, apply to your own hands first, then spread on their skin. Reapply after swimming or heavy sweating. When returning indoors, wash treated skin with soap and water. Store the bottle away from heat and direct sunlight.
