.5% is a half of 1%... so if that's the case, wouldn't it be 5 parts water for 1 part concentrate, if it's 10 parts water for 1 part concentrate at 1%? Or is my math off? That's assuming you want the final solution to be the same strength, which is my understanding.

You're backwards I think. .o1 VS .005. If the first ratio = 10 to one, the second needs twice the dilution.@@Oatmeal-Savage

That sounds more like a 10% solution and a 5% solution.

@@leethurston4774 Yes, IF you begin with a pure substance before dilution.

You've got to do the math, Permethrin comes in a couple different concentrations. .5% ready to spray, 10% for pouring over cattle, and 36.8%. Like the maker of the video, I prefer the 10% "pour over" figuring if you can apply it directly to cattle it won't have any other ingredients that are bad for mammals. Thing I'd like to know is how stable the permethrin is; is the 10% I bought 5 years ago still 10% or quite a bit less?

Weird, I take B complex every day. I guess I must just be *delicious* then... lol

I do these sorts of things over the years. I wasn't prepping to keep ticks off, but I would notice ticks would generally run over me and not bit. If they did bite me they would act sluggish as if ill, and barely bite not attaching, and let go altogether pretty soon. A tick generally has to bit you for nearer 24 hours to pass an illness on. NAC would probably be a good repellant as well because it has a super sulfury smell. High in sulfur.

As a Duck Hunter standing in water from sunrise to sunset I can attest to the Vitamin B complex / 12 working. Wasn't 100% , but it sure helped. That plus a 3 oz. bottle of army deet lasts a lifetime.

Vitamin B1 is the ingredient that deters mosquitos. Ive seen people take it in large doses. An internet search will give plenty of info on it.

BTW, the combat fatigues I'm familiar with have both the tuck and seal. A narrow sleeve tucks into the boot, doubles up above the boot and doubles back down to the ankle, where it is sealed. So you have both, the tuck inside the sock and boot, and the seal at the outside of the boot ankle.

MoeShmoe I have at least 3 wraps of extra laces on my boots, so I wrap my pants tight outside my boots, then wrap the laces 2 to 3 times over pants, thread the laces together 3 times, pull tight, repeat, then do again, never come loose rest of day, takes twice as long to untie, but can walk all day no lace hassle. Then, spray pants/boots with a mix of 1 tablespoon borax to 16 ozs warm water, till wet, spray on collar, wet well, cuffs of long-sleeves, and top of belt at waist, wet well, it'll dry soon, and on your zipper, and shirt buttons flap,.

well we don't have malaria here anymore either, but reports are that its coming back. Cases reported in the US recently.

Nor fleas. I don’t use any flea/tick meds for them at all. I KNOW it works…as I can’t comb their ear fur or the short hair around their eyes, I DO find the odd tick in these places. But as they’re so visible I just unplug them when the cats come home. As a force of habit, I also always comb their body with the flea comb again when they get back from their adventures. I’m not lying to when I say zero ticks or fleas. And as I have had Lyme (brutal and extreme but thankfully it was treated within a week of the bit) I take tick deterrence very seriously.
