Highly Effective & Compact

This is some of the best bug spray I've ever used. I bought it in a panic when I found out that I was almost out of bug stuff before a weeklong trip, and I don't think I'll be buying anything else again. The spray has almost no odour, and lasts about twelve hours (without water - the spray is water soluable, making it easy to remove, but you'll have to reapply it after swimming or showering). I didn't get a single bite on that trip, and I was hiking through wet, marshy lowlands in late summer. You could barely see for the mosquitos in the air, there were twelve tick removals and three members of my group sustained multiple bites per night, despite using bug spray and closed sleeping bags. Also, it doesn't destroy plastic like some similar products. I use the 4oz pump spray - much smaller, and fewer resources to make.

Does this include Permethrin? or something like that that will work for fleas?

There's no permathrin in Ben's: the active ingredient is deet (N-N-dimethyl-toulamide), however, this is perfectly effective on ticks.

I'll be in Alaska in August. Is this product strong enough?

Absolutely. Just make sure to apply it regularity (but no more than is safe).
