Hiker Jam #3: Sawyer Products on Revolutionizing Water Filtration

I talk with Travis Avery of Sawyer Products. Sawyer makes a line of extremely popular items ranging from insect repellents to water filters.

We dive deep into how their product, the Sawyer Squeeze, revolutionized the way we consume water in the backcountry. We also talk about how the company started in 1984 with a surprisingly unique product, insect repellents, water filtration, and more.

Mentioned in this episode:

  • Diskou peze
  • Picaridin (topical insect repellent)
  • Permethrin (insect prevention spray)
  • Sawyer International (clean water non-profit)
  • Tape Filter
  • Hot Ones (First We Feast youtube channel)

Summer tick season used to be a problem only in the southern part of Ontario, but tick populations are moving north as the climate grows warmer.

Mosquitos are nasty creatures. They bite, they transmit terrible diseases to people and pets, and from what I read, they have absolutely no redeeming value in the ecosystem.
