“I hated DEET — the smell, the greasy film, the melted watch strap. Scent Zero feels like spraying water and I still came back from a 10-hour hike without a single bite.”

Common questions

Is picaridin as effective as DEET?

Yes. Picaridin 20% provides 12 hours of protection from ticks and mosquitoes — comparable to high-concentration DEET — and 8 hours from biting flies, gnats, chiggers and no-see-ums. It’s a CDC-recommended active ingredient and the leading DEET alternative worldwide.

Is Ranger Ready safe for kids and during pregnancy?

Picaridin 20% is safe for adults, children over 1 year old, and use during pregnancy. It’s non-greasy, absorbs at just 6%, and contains no neurotoxins — which is why many families switch from DEET.

Will it damage my clothing or gear?

No. Unlike DEET — which can melt synthetic fabrics, watch bands, sunglasses and fishing line — picaridin is completely gear-safe. Spray it over clothing, boots and equipment without a second thought.
