Thank You DougE

Just remember that Permanone is to be sprayed on clothing ONLY. And it lasts a long time and even through a washing. You should spray your outer clothing outside before putting it on.

Does Permanone have an oder?

shump

nope spray it on let dry

DougE

Permanone is not a dangerous chemical either.The reason you spray it on your cloths is because it actually bonds with the fabric.

I buy permethrin concentrate(the active ingrediant in permanone)and spray it on my horses.

livbucks

We spray it on a rag and wipe the horse.
The horse knows what it does, and she cooperates fully.
Sometimes I swear she asks for it!

Sorry Doug but disgree - Permethrin is a dangerous chemeical - it is a synthectic insecticide. Always read the units Application Directions. You don;t and use it wrong that becomes your fault.

Be carefull with it.

Why on clothes and not on human skin - go look at the toxicology reports written on it.

Thanks for bringing that up JW. I've had a bad experience with chemicals at my workplace and don't want to go through it again.That brings me to this. They say not to apply Permethrin directly to the skin,but just your clothes. They also claim,even after daily washing of your clothes,the chemical will stay in your clothes for a week to ten days. If that's so,my concern would be. The chemical in the clothes,next to your skin. While wearing the treated clothes you work up a sweat. When you do,this opens the pores in your skin.
Can your body absorb the chemical this way?

livbucks

Just Google it.

JW

Yes but not enough to worry about

You eat more Permethrin than you know as it is common to treat many vegetables with it.
