      Comments about Sawyer Jungle Juice 100 Pump Spray Insect Repellent - 98 Percent DEET - 2 fl. oz.:

      I bought several 2oz bottles for the entire family for our trip to South Africa. We did a week on safari in the country's malaria region so I didn't want to play around. Long story short, we survived our trip without a single insect bite amongst the 4 of us! Thru long game drives, outdoor meals & even swimming...Jungle Juice provided the ultimate protection. And since the bottle size is small, we were able to pack it in our carry-on luggage & apply the second our plane touched ground in Kruger. The only downside is the potential health risk associated with DEET. Keeping this in mind we used Jungle Juice on our generously on our clothes, a little less on our skin...very effective.

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Sawyer Jungle Juice 100 Pump Spray Insect Repellent - 98 Percent DEET - 2 fl. oz.:

        It works when the others don't.

        I am healthy about what I apply to my skin, but I make exceptions with bug spray because the non-DEET sprays just don't work.

        I use this in the Northwest during mosquito season and it works pretty well.

        I have also used this in New Zealand to ward off the sandflies.

        Spray bottle is easier to apply but its a little more bulky and heavier compared to the normal bottle.

        I do prefer to apply it to my clothing instead of my skin (NOTE: Be careful about the material you apply it to - read the bottle for warnings). I like to spray it on my hat rather than my face, etc.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Sawyer Jungle Juice 100 Pump Spray Insect Repellent - 98 Percent DEET - 2 fl. oz.:

        I've found this spray to be very effective, much more so than two other repellents I also purchased from REI. The spray applicator is quite handy -- in that it keeps the juice off your hands. I only knocked one star off its score since it doesn't really dry on your skin, but it remains a bit greasy. Small tradeoff, though -- I'd rather be bug free and a little tacky, than get chewed up over miles of trail. Use this stuff, and the bugs will NOT be bugging you.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

        Comments about Sawyer Jungle Juice 100 Pump Spray Insect Repellent - 98 Percent DEET - 2 fl. oz.:

        I generally use this product on backpacking trips but it is very useful anywhere there are harmful bugs. Just spray on a general area and rub it in. Like they say, a little goes a long way so use it sparingly. 3 people got by on one bottle for a week up in the High Sierras where there are a bugillion hawk sized mosquitoes. Its amazing, the mosquitoes literally die on contact.

        Bottle comes with a screw top that we found to come in handy. When this was the only bottle of DEET and it was getting low we unscrewed the top and poured about a 1/3 to 1/2 dose of water and the product still performed extremely well.

        Only complaint is I wish it would last a little longer. I find myself having to reapply every 2-3 hours.

        Also, Im not sure how safe this product is but I dont know anyone who has had a bad reaction.

        Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

          This stuff works but when my head was surrounded by a cloud of flies I sprayed it all over my head and bike helmet. It got rid of the flies but My expensive bike jacket had black sticky stuff on the collar that looked like chain oil. It turned out the DEET was dissolving the styrofoam stuff of my helmet into a black sticky goo. So be aware

            Used the product backpacking in Sierra mtns. Applying a small amount proved to be effective and long lasting. My only quibble is that, at some point during our trip, the fine mist spray turned into more of a single-stream squirt. This could have been due to altitude, as it seemed to correct itself after we descended to lower altitudes.

            Users should be aware that DEET can destroy certain materials (e.g. plastics), so keep it away from sunglasses, watches, bear canisters, etc.
