    Anyone have any luck getting ultrathon insect repellent into the bmw microdrop plus droppers? I made a complete mess trying to do it and still got nothing in.

    A valid question.
    What is your target weight ?

    An entire container full of 3M Ultrathon should weigh less than 3oz.

    Maybe you can bring packets of repellant @ .5oz (?) each ?

    Patrick, I dont really have a target weight. I was looking more for a space savings, because I only use a little for my hands and neck.
    I guess I’m just wondering if putting a lotion(sunscreen,ultrathon,etc.) into the droppers is possible.

    Your local craft/hobby/woodworking store proably has much the same.

    Use a 30 mL syringe.
