Lord Of The Flies
Some people may not be comfortable with putting chemicals on or even near their skin. It’s understandable, no one wants the cancer. But I invite all believers in homeopathic new age bug repellents to survive a monsoon season in Southeast Asia. If the mozzies don’t carry you off entirely the best you can hope for is Dengue.
Permethrin has been used for decades by militaries and outdoor clothing manufacturers such as Exofficio and Columbia to treat clothing even after it’s washed, providing an odorless shield against biting insects.

Sawyer Permethrin not only repels insects, they actually kill ticks, mosquitoes, chiggers, mites, and more than 55 other kinds of insects.
