No ticks or chiggars. Don't get it on your skin. It'll give you chemical burn. First hand experience here lol.

          Haven't checked in a while but have bought the Cutter brand at Walmart. Cabela's and Bass Pro have it for sure and would expect Academy to have it as well. Just did a quick web search and Walmart, Lowes and Home Depot also came up in the list having permethrin.

            yup, yup, yup, yup, and yup...

            I think you can buy the big bottle online and then make your own. Or just buy some pre-made. With what I spend on the lease, bow, corn, gas, food, drink, a little spray ain't much.

              Nothing to add... Permethrin has already been stated. Haven't tried it yet, but I've got a bottle based on the previous thread. No reason to risk.

                You can get the concentrate at Tractor Supply Stores. Then mix it down to your needs.

                I mix it strong enough to keep black widows and recluse out of my pop-ups. Also helps with skeeters.

                    Thank you guys. I tried to reply yesterday, but my internet is spotty. My reply never posted as previously thought.

                    I'll definitely get some soon.

                          IDK.....I have used it on my horses for flies and it worked really good and didn't hurt them.
