## Description

desertcart.com: Sawyer Products SP6022 Premium Permethrin Insect Repellent for Clothing, Gear & Tents, Aerosol Spray, 9-Fluid Ounce, Twin Pack- Packaging May Vary : Health & Household

Review: Best Insect Repellent - Long-Lasting and Highly Effective! - This insect repellent is absolutely amazing! Sawyer Premium Permethrin works incredibly well for treating clothing, gear, and tents. It lasts through multiple washes and provides excellent protection against ticks, mosquitoes, and other insects. I love that it's odorless once dry and doesn't damage fabrics. Perfect for camping and outdoor activities. The spray application is easy and even. This has become essential for all my outdoor adventures. Highly effective and long-lasting protection!
Review: Wonderful for clothing and some gear - This is awesome stuff if you spend any time in bug and tick country. It is so much nicer (and probably healthier) to have this on your clothing than to have to keep re-applying bug repellent to your skin. Treat the tops of socks, cuffs of pants and shirts, waist and collar for ticks. I've gone an entire week at a heavy-tick-area camp and not found a single one on my clothing or body. Treat all areas of your pants and shirts for protection from mosquitoes that might bite through them. It also works on certain gear. Treating the underside of the brim of my hat seems to help somewhat for bugs that like to fly in your eyes. I used to get mosquito bites through my hammock, but after treating it with this, they hover, but never even land on it. Follow the instructions. Treat your stuff in advance and let it dry. For clothing I wash often, it lasts through several washes (maybe around 6?). For items kept in stuff sacks when not in use, it seems to last for years. Keep it away from your food and water if course.

## Features

- Permethrin spray bonds to fabric fibers for up to 6 weeks or through 6 washings (whichever comes first) won't stain or damage clothing, fabrics, plastics, finished surfaces, or outdoor gear; fragrance free

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If I spray some cloth strips, hang them near yellow bee activity in a bush, would it repel the bees?**
A: No, Product is not intended to repel Bees. Works great for mosquitoes or ticks.

**Q: How to use  inside the house, not necessarily on clothes|**
A: Would not recommend for use inside.  You would never want this to get on food, pets, etc. and is not to be put on skin.   Put on clothing, etc. let dry 24 hrs.  Works great for hunters, campers or walks in the woods, & golf if you get off fairways where ticks are prevalent.   This stuff will last thru 6 washings.   If you have ticks in the house, call pest control.

**Q: Will it work on fleas?**
A: The can says it gives 6 weeks protection against ticks,mosquitoes and chiggers. Highly toxic, to be sprayed on clothes and gear only.

**Q: Can I use on outdoor plants to get rid of flea beetles?**
A: Yes, this may be used on plants as a multi-purpose spray in small home gardens and for spot treatments of incipient insect infestations to prevent spreading into larger home areas.

May also be used on other plants such as African violets, asters, azaleas, begonia, camellias, carnations, chrysanthemums, dahlias, delphiniums, dogwoods, English ivy, euonymus, fuchsia, geraniums, crassula, grape vines, Kentia palms, laurels, marigolds, rhododendrons, roses, rubber plants, snapdragons, stocks, wandering jews, and zinnias.  

Effective when used as directed against whiteflies, aphids, spider and red mites, exposed thrips, lace bugs, Japanese beetles, pavement ants, clover mites, and army worms.

When spraying plants, do not operate closer than 18 inches.  Use sweeping motion.  Be cautious about wedding tender foliage, young plants and new growth.  Do not spray plants when temperatures exceed 90 degrees Fahrenheit.  Contact insects directly when possible.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Absolute Must-Have for the Outdoors
*by X***E on October 23, 2025*

This stuff is liquid gold if you spend any time hiking, camping, or just being in the woods. I treat my clothes, socks, shoes, and backpack with this at the beginning of the season, and the difference it makes is incredible. Application is straightforward. I just hang my gear outside, spray everything down until it's damp, and let it dry completely. Once it's dry, there's no odor at all. The most important part is that it actually works. I've gone from picking multiple ticks off myself after a hike to finding none at all. It's also extremely effective against mosquitoes and other annoying bugs. The protection lasts for several weeks and even through multiple washes, which is super convenient. Using this spray has become a non negotiable part of my outdoor prep. It provides peace of mind and lets me enjoy my time outside without worrying about ticks and bug bites. I can't recommend it highly enough.
