What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this insect repellent for its powerful, long-lasting protection against mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers, and no-see-ums. The 40% DEET formula is consistently highlighted as superior to standard alternatives, with many reporting no bites even in extreme environments like swamps and wooded areas. Reviewers emphasize lasting protection for several hours, especially when applied to clothing, and appreciate the reliability and affordability compared to other brands. Most express strong brand loyalty and plan to repurchase. A few mention the strong chemical odor and occasional need to reapply after heavy sweating, though these are minor trade-offs for most customers.

Would RecommendI live where the no-see umms mob you around your whole body and this Repel works good on them. It’s good for skeeters also. Good product. I will buy again.

40% DEET is the best at repelling pests
Would RecommendThis is a really good insect repellant spray at 40% DEET. We use the REPEL on our clothing and footwear, but not on our faces and hands. We have found the effectiveness lasts many hours and is easy to wash off when not needed. The only way to improve this product is to offer it in a larger can.

This spray is a good value. I live in a high humidity area close to the water and have to deal with lots of mosquitos. I like the smell of it (though my wife doesn’t, so that’s a matter of personal preference). It seems effective against mosquitoes and other bugs for at least a couple hours. When I sweat a lot I do find I have to reapply. It definitely has a moist or wet‑feel to it when applied.

As Good as Other Major Brands
Would RecommendMost brands of bug repellant that you see in the stores is 25% DEET. This is 40% DEET, so it works better and that's good to know if you're going to be on your deck where 25% would work or in the woods, where you need more. Plus, you get more product for the money. It's not as easy to carry as some smaller options, but it's worth it if you have room.

Smile, no West Nile
Would RecommendLiving in Texas where everything is bigger... including the mosquitoes, i buy the biggest bottle so that i can sirens my summer nights bug bite free. Not endorcing saturating your skin with chemicals, but if you feel the need to be big bite free, you don't have to use much and it lasts for hours.
