Picaridin Insect Repellent
As a DEET alternative, this Picaridin-based formula offers you peace of mind. It's safe to use on your skin and won't harm your gear. It is believed that picaridin is a safer alternative to DEET because it is gentle on sensitive skin and the environment.
Picaridin insect repellent provides long-lasting protection against a variety of insects - up to 8 hours of protection from mosquitoes and ticks, and up to 14 hours against flies, chiggers, gnats, and more.
Costa Rica and most of Central and South America are known to have mosquito-borne diseases.
It’s not sticky or greasy feeling on your skin and the scent is less chemically than DEET.
Sawyer Products is a trusted name in outdoor gear, and is known for its quality and reliability.
In my experience, it works and I prefer it to DEET.
Approx. $13 for a 2 pack
