28. Insect repellent, so you don't get bit by chiggers, ticks, and mosquitoes when you're out and about. This formula contains 20% Picaridin and gives you up to eight hours of protection from outdoor critters. It also won't stain your clothes or camping gear (win).


Promising review: "This is the best. It doesn't have a strong scent. Once mosquitoes start flying, I put this on after my morning shower, and go out in confidence.

Sawyer, for example, checks to ensure that no pore size exceeds 0.01 microns, stating that “the filters are then checked four more times at crucial points of assembly for filter integrity before they make their way onto the shelf.”
