일부는 가능하지만 대부분은 불가능합니다. 파리가 문제가 된다면 Sawyer 20% 피카리딘 국소 방충제를 사용하는 것이 좋습니다. 피카리딘은 DEET보다 파리에 훨씬 더 효과적이며, 특히 시중에 판매되는 다른 피카리딘 포뮬러보다 높은 20%의 피카리딘을 함유하고 있습니다.

Yes. We would recommend applying the sunscreen first. The trick to a comfortable and effective application of sunscreen it to put it on first thing in the morning or at least 10 minutes before sun exposure to help it fully absorb into your skin. Our SPF 30 sunscreen is a bonding base formula which makes it very breathable while still very effective. You can learn more about this formula at sawyer.com/sunscreen

The lotions will usually last longer simply because you will have more control over how much product is used (recommended amount is .5 ounces per application). Similarly, the pump spray would last longer than the aerosol, which gives the least control, but is arguably the easiest to use.

FYI, because of the way they slow down the evaporation of the product, lotions will last approx. 2 hours longer than sprays of comparable concentrations. However, sprays have the advantage of being able to be applied to clothing and remain effective much longer on clothing than on skin. Since repellents work as a 3″ barrier, clothing applications can often protect 6″ of exposed skin and significantly reduce your usage on skin. So all things considered, whether to use a lotion or a spray is just a matter of personal preference.

We would suggest treating all of your clothing and gear with Sawyer Permethrin which is a synthetic pyrethrum that comes naturally from a chrysanthemum flower! It lasts 6 weeks or 6 washings and is ultimately weightless while out on the trail. It both repels and kills ticks, mosquitoes, chiggers, mites and 55 other species of insects. Spraying all of your clothing and gear will give you a much larger surface area of protection against those insects.

For additional protection, apply Sawyer 20% Picaridin (comes in spray or lotion form and multiple sizes) on all of your exposed skin. Picaridin is a synthetic of a natural coming from the pepperine family. It is gear friendly, low odor, low grease, and family friendly. Also, it is the longest lasting topical repellent on the market - spray at 12 hours and lotion at 14 hours!

So, Sawyer Permethrin treated clothing paired with Sawyer Picaridin on exposed skin will give you the ultimate protection against insects, including those pesky mosquitoes!
