    Comments about Repel Permanone Clothing and Gear Insect Repellent:

    Used a single can on 2 clothing sets 2 days before backpacking in the Sipsey Wilderness. After 2 days of wading in creeks, my hiking clothes were no longer repeling mosquitoes, ticks and horse flies. My camping clothes were still effective though.

      Comments about Repel Permanone Clothing and Gear Insect Repellent:

      I used this product on a recent spring turkey hunt. There were 4 of us and I offered it to all. One other guy took me up on my offer. After spending the day in the woods the 2 guys that did not use the spray had multiple wood and deer ticks on and in them. Me and the guy that used the spray had none. This is the best real world test I can imagine. Good product!

        Comments about Repel Permanone Clothing and Gear Insect Repellent:

        Spray on day packs, pants, shirts and socks to repel ticks. This product contains permethrin. In my experience only products containing permethrin repel ticks in heavily infested areas.

          Comments about Repel Permanone Clothing and Gear Insect Repellent:

          I applied this to my hat, socks, pants, shirt, and tent for a recent trip. Based on my experience vs. my friend's who did not use any type of Permethrin treatment I would have to say it works well. He was constantly swatting at bugs and had to remove a tick. I had little to no issues with bugs and the only tick I saw was "his".
