They work pretty good when stationary but not walking. I don't want to spray down every morning to just walk.
the Sawyer stuff I referenced above goes on almost dry with no oily residue. you wont know the permethrin is on your clothes. I sleep in a sleeping bag with both and there is no stickiness. also OFF! has some stuff that pretty much goes on dry. ive used this stuff in places that make our misquitos look like nothing with great success with no bites , no oily residue, no burning. Picariden is the greatest invention EVER! there is no reason to let bugs spoil the ourdoors anymore
