What are the benefits of wearing Insect Shield Permethrin-treated clothing?

Insect Shield builds repellent protection directly into the fabric, providing long-lasting effectiveness for up to 70 washes. It’s a convenient way to stay comfortable and protected during outdoor work, travel, sports, and everyday adventures.

What are the benefits of Insect Shield vs. other forms of insect protection?

Insect Shield apparel keeps repellent protection in the fabric, not on your skin. The built-in repellency is invisible, long-lasting, and effective without the need for reapplication, making it a low-maintenance option for daily wear.

Will Insect Shield repellency wash out or come off with sweat?

No. The repellent is tightly bonded to the fabric and designed to last through 70 home launderings—the expected lifetime of a garment. It won’t wash away with sweat or rain and doesn’t require reapplication like topical products.

How do I care for Insect Shield repellent apparel?

Just wash and wear. Insect Shield clothing is machine washable and maintains effectiveness through regular laundering. Avoid dry cleaning, as it may reduce the repellent’s effectiveness by removing some of the bonded active ingredient.

Why can't Insect Shield garments be dry-cleaned?

Dry cleaning can reduce the effectiveness of the built-in repellent by removing some of the active ingredient. Regular machine washing won’t affect performance.
