To be honest I never expected to write a review for this product. DEET is DEET.... It's been around since the 50s or so and it's still your best protection against mosquitoes... Picardan in my hands simply has not been that great for the asian zebra type mosquitoes (aeges aegypti/albopicans) so DEET it is.....
So why am I reading review here because DEET is absolutely a horrible product because it really wants to dissolve all of your plastics and in my experience storing DEET in my car or around the house it will inevitably get knocked over leak and destroy anything it touches....
BUT! This product is packaged so incredibly well that brought joy to my heart, seriously! There is a screw cap top and when you take off the screw cap top there is a plastic plug. The spray unit is actually a separate component that you screw in later after removing the screw cap top in the plastic plug. So now in my car I keep the plastic plug in the screw cap top on all the time and I keep the plunger next to it so when I have to use it it's a little bit extra work but I know that I'm not destroying anything in my trunk or glove compartment!
This is the best way I have ever found to buy DEET in a world in which I had grown used to disappointment....
Oh yah. It works.
