A tick that crawls onto treated pants legs is killed within seconds of contact rather than eventually reaching skin through clothing gaps. This kill-on-contact mechanism provides a defense layer that skin-applied repellents cannot replicate, and the 6-wash durability means a single treatment session covers a full season of hunting and hiking before re-treatment is needed. Treating boot uppers and laces where ticks most commonly access the body provides targeted protection at the primary tick entry point on the lower body during travel through tall grass and brush.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eKill-on-contact mechanism — ticks and mosquitoes die on treated fabric rather than reaching skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-wash \/ 42-day durability — one treatment lasts a full hunting or hiking season\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24 oz covers multiple garments plus boots, gaiters, and pack surfaces in one treatment session\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCDC-recommended Permethrin formulation for Lyme disease and tick-borne illness prevention\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTreat boots and laces for protection at the primary tick body-access entry point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt $29.99 for 24 oz, Sawyer Permethrin is the cost-effective tick prevention investment for hunters and hikers in Lyme-endemic areas. The 6-wash durability makes it less expensive per-day of protection than daily skin-applied repellent routines, and the kill-on-contact mechanism provides a defense layer that no skin repellent replicates for the most common tick exposure scenario in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sawyer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52382441963796,"sku":"PPO-SAWYER-PERM","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0894\/6614\/2996\/files\/71BgXKIOvzL._AC_SL1500.jpg?v=1776800008","url":"https:\/\/peakperformanceoutfitters.com\/products\/sawyer-permethrin-clothing-repellent","provider":"Peak Performance Outfitters","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
