Sawyer Products Premium Permethrin Insect Repellent Aerosol Spray

This is a review of "Sawyer Products Premium Permethrin Insect Repellent Aerosol Spray" I have used both Sawyer Permethrin spray and Picaridin Lotion for twenty years. I have a fatal attraction. Bugs love me. They attack me and leave others alone. Mosquitoes give me large welts. When gardening I am assaulted by another unknown bug. I get very large red weeping welts. Deer Flys kamikaze me till I go inside. Sawyers' permethrin and picaridin products have become my bodyguards. They are used quite differently and both are very effective. Permethrin is sprayed on clothing ( let it dry for 2 hours or more before wearing the clothing) and not directly on the skin. . The permethrin sprayed clothing will remain effective through several washings. It helps prevent ticks grabbing onto shoes or socks or pantlegs when hiking. if they do attach to sprayed clothing, permethrin will kill them. Besides spraying my clothing, this can be used on dog bedding ( DO NOT USE FOR CATS-due to toxicity) I also spray this lightly on screens in my sunroom. It stops the spiders from weaving their webs between the screens and the windows. The picaridin lotion is applied to the skin and is my body armor for mosquitoes and deer flys. I can be outside in peace. THANK YOU.

Chose aerosol after seeing all the reviews of the leaky pump bottle, no issues or problems. I treated 8 pairs of socks, 2 pants and 6 shirts with one can, and feel that was in line with printed expectations. I treated flat outdoors as I felt I was missing hanging folds. Not sure of it was the aerosol or the fabric (cotton knit) but the product sat on the fabric in a fine foamy layer see 1st photo) - easy to see but I was reluctant to reverse item immediately. I gave it 5-10 min to soak in then did reverse, hung to dry. The aerosol made it very easy to see wind direction/drift issues right away. I discovered after the fact that since I have a gray water washing machine system I'll have to launder my items elsewhere; not suitable for irrigation. Be aware. I will update review if I have mosquito issues :)
