    Cutter Advanced is by far the best insect repellent that I've ever used! It does not have the greasy feeling when applied that most other insect repellent have! It also does not have the unpleasant odor that many other insect repellent have, it is barely noticeable when you apply it. The only problem that I have with it, is that it doesn't last very long and has to be reapplied after 25 or 30 minutes, but it really does work! The only other problem I hve with it is that most stores in Thr Hampton Roads, Virginia do not carry it, so I like it so much that I get it wherever I can, like Drug Store.com.

    When reading about Picaridin use elsewhere in the world, literature says it needs to be used in concentrations similar to DEET. For wilderness use or other areas of high pest concentration, that means at least 30% active ingredient for mosquitoes. This particular product is way to weak except for suburban backyards. U.S. sellers are only slowly ratcheting up the concentration (probably worried about liability) and have yet to reach the concentration sold in Australia and Europe. There is a 20% variety available of this product ([...]) and it works much better. Sure is easier on skin, synthetic materials and tool handle finish! Picaridin is a good product, it's just not yet sold strong enough for what we need.

      Comments about Cutter Advanced Insect Repellent, 6 fl oz:

      *I greatly prefer insect repellents without DEET that contain Picardin instead, which is very popular in Europe.
      *Works effectively with no odor and is not greasy.
      *I have trouble finding this product (which I have used for several years) in local stores, but fortunately Drugstore.com sells it.
      *I live in Houstin, TX which is one of the worst cities in the U.S. for mosquitoes and West Nile Virus. I have tried many insect repellents and this is the best by far in my opinion.

                Comments about Cutter Advanced Insect Repellent, 6 fl oz:

                Not only am a "mosquito magnet" who gets bitten when no one else does, but I am also highly allergic to mosquito bites, so I need a good bug spray that isn't objectionable to wear. This one fills the bill-- no semi-toxic DEET, no odor, no sticky feel, and it works well for everyday activities. I don't know how well it would work for deep woods camping, but for puttering around the garden or a backyard barbeque, it works just fine. I am so glad Drugstore.com still carries it, because I can no longer find it at any of my local retailers.

                  Cutter Backwioods with Deet worked very well. I found this product to be totally ineffective for mosquitoes and gnats.

                      I seem to attract more mosquitoes than anyone I know and after reading reviews, this sounded perfect. It doesn't have much of an odor, which is great. However, I still get eaten alive when I'm out on my patio, so perhaps a stronger spray or lotion would be better. Worth a shot though...

                          I use this product because in Hawaii there are plenty mosquitoes, and I am allergic to bites.
                          I especially like this product because while effective, it is also not detrimental to the finish on my ukulele's!
                          Oicardin doesn't destroy the finish on ukes or guitars like DEET will.
