DEET 7-10% skin repellent

Low-concentration DEET (7-10%) gives roughly 1-2 hours of tick repellency and is a reasonable choice for short outings.

Steps

01
Apply a thin, even film to all exposed skin (avoid eyes, mouth, broken skin).
02
Plan to reapply every 1-2 hours; lower percentages wear off faster.
03
Use the lowest effective concentration that covers your time outside.
04
Wash skin with soap and water once back indoors.
