You can buy Duration TM 10% concentrate  online. You have to mix it your self, but it's the same thing as Sawyers and alot cheaper  They give you a bag to soak your clothes in and says you can do 16 sets of clothes , I mixed the concentrate in spray bottles And used it like sawyers, Have used it for two years now and have not had a problem with ticks. Had enough concentrate to make 8 bottles the same size as sawyers for 32.95 Plus 7.95 shipping.  Thats 40$ for 8 bottles compared to 2 bottles of sawyers.

For the second year in a row, I made my own Permethrin spray and have not found the first tick embedded in my hide. If you want to do the same, I would suggest going to HuntingPA.com, in their turkey hunting forum, and reading a post they keep at the top titled, "The Magic Tick Potion." There is some excellant information contained in that thread, and you can save a ton of money by making your own clothes spray.
