Читать книгу Bangkok and Chiang Mai On a Rope - Larry Stein - Страница 7

Even if malaria isn't prevalent at your destinations, mosquitoes will be. For some that means DEET, and repeat. I detest the odor and feel of DEET.

Instead I recommend a two-prong solution. Picaridin is rated as effective as DEET, but is neither smelly nor sticky. Sawyer and Cutter are two brands. Ideally use a twenty per cent concentration. But, in the words of Ron Popeil, “wait there’s more.” Spray your clothes with Permethrin. Sawyer is a popular brand. This will deter mosquitoes for up to six washings. This is a much cheaper solution than purchasing insect repellent clothing, which usually relies on the same ingredient.
