    What's the correct mix for Permethrin 10 for ticks??

    I know we've discussed this but just want to be sure I got this right & bring one last attn getter to the gang & taking the precautions to guard against those little devils.

    Bought a bottle from Tractor Supply as I needed some for camp & they did have a pre-mix spray for your clothes, but figured it would be cheaper to mix my own since I had the concentrate. Found a new spray bottle about the size of a regular windex I can use.

    Gracias!!

      A couple oz per bottle mixed with water will do it

        I don’t know the actual answer, but I use the ratio for spaying livestock structures, then let it dry before wearing

          There are no directions for use to spray on clothing but their 1:100 mix for general use is 1.3oz to 1 gallon. Is the clothing solution supposed to be stronger?? My spray bottle is 24oz.

          Also, how many washes are you guys getting before re-applying.

            1 1/2 ounces per quart of water for ticks. Don't drink it.

                What percentage concentrate do you have? You want to have a .5% solution to spray on your clothing only.

                If, it is a 10% concentrate use 1.6 oz of concentrate with 30.4 oz of water to make a quart of solution.
