Clothing Trigger Spray (Permethrin)

Permethrin is an insecticide that is a synthetic replica of the natural insecticide which is derived from the flowers of the daisy. It was developed and tested by the U.S. military for use on uniforms. It uses the same active ingredient used in hair shampoos for head lice. When it is applied to clothing, bed nets, tents, or gear the treated fabric repels or kills biting insects including mosquitoes that may carry the West Nile virus or malaria and ticks that may carry Lyme disease or Rocky Mountain spotted fever. When it dries, it bonds to the cloth fiber or mesh netting and is odorless and non-staining. it is water-based, biodegradable, and virtually non-toxic to humans, with no systemic effects reported. When treated clothing is used in conjunction with a DEET insect repellent on exposed skin, nearly 100% protection against disease-causing mosquitoes and ticks can be achieved.

Mosquito Treated Bed Net
The treated bed net uses the latest research and technology to achieve a breakthrough in the global fight against malaria. The treated bed net production process begins with a masterbatch of granules containing clothing spray. The masterbatch is melted and extruded into fibers. Traditional nets require regular dipping in insecticide, to maintain effectiveness in repelling mosquitoes, as an insecticide is dislodged during regular use. With the treated bed net, since the insecticide is present on the surface but is also incorporated inside the fiber. When insecticide is removed during washing and use, more migrates to the surface, maintaining efficacy over the 5-year shelf life of the net.
