PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Outdoor enthusiasts know that when the going gets tough, so should their insect repellent. However extreme the activity or terrain, there's a Repel insect repellent designed to offer dependable coverage that lasts as long as you need it. Repel products make effective mosquito protection simple under any circumstance so you can heed the call of the wild wherever the trail takes you. Repel Permethrin Clothing & Gear Insect Repellent is designed to be applied to clothing and gear, rather than on skin. This insect repellent repels and kills the mosquitoes, ticks and chiggers that can take the fun out of an outdoor adventure. One treatment lasts for 2 weeks, so you can protect your clothing and gear for your next outing and be ready to go at any time. This unscented spray helps create a mosquito barrier for your gear and clothing so you can focus on all the outdoor activities you enjoy. Apply to gear including nets, tents, sleeping bags and backpacks. This product contains an active ingredient that actually binds to the fabric being treated. It provides residual protection for a minimum of two weeks and will hold up through several machine washings. Dont re-treat clothing more than once every two weeks wash at least once before re-treating. See product label for complete treatment directions. INSECT-FREE HIKING A little planning can go a long way toward staying mosquito-bite-free in the backwoods and on the water. Simply apply Rebel Permethrin Clothing & Gear Insect Repellent aerosol on all your equipment before you're planning to be outdoors, and you'll enjoy mosquito and tick protection that repels and kills biting insects for up to two weeks. The odorless spray actually binds to the fabric on garments, boots, backpacks, tents, nets, and other outdoor gear, ensuring residual protection that lasts through several machine washings and multiple outdoor excursions. SAFE AND EFFECTIVE Permethrin, the active ingredient in Repel Permethrin Clothing & Gear Insect Repellent aerosol, is a synthetic pyrethroid that works by disrupting the normal functioning of the nervous system of mosquitoes and ticks. It's a contact insecticide that kills all biting insects that come in contact with treated fabric fibers. Permethrin-based repellents are safe for use with any type of fabric or material--even delicate garments. The insecticide binds very strongly to the fibers of the fabrics you treat, but will not absorb into the skin. The aerosol is designed for clothing application, however. Do not spray products containing permethrin directly onto your skin. APPLICATION RECOMMENDATIONS Spray garments or equipment at least two to four hours before you're planning to use or pack them to make sure they're completely dry. Lay out the articles you want to treat in a well-ventilated outdoor area and moisten the surface of the fabric until the outer surface is visibly moist. Turn it over and treat the other side, then hang to dry. You shouldn't reuse Repel Permethrin Clothing & Gear Insect Repellent aerosol more than once every two weeks. Wash treated clothing at least once before you treat it again. Use permethrin-based products in conjunction with an insect repellent designed for direct application to your skin for best results.
