Never heard of that stuff? Can you get it at a local feed store? Or is it from walley world or something?

If you take a bath with baking soda ASAP you will not itch . Gareenteed. If you you wait a few days you're out of luck.

I have never used the Permanone brand, but I have used Sawyer brand Permethrin. Same active ingredient. Used it during Turkey season this year for ticks and chiggers. I will not be going in the woods without it. Great product!! BPS sells it, sometimes Wal Mart.

Do not spray Permanone on your clothes without giving it enough time to dry before putting them on. It is meant to be used as a clothing treatment, not like Off is used. I always place waider bands around my pants, then put my boots on. This way my pant legs stay tucked in my boots and the chiggers would have to go down into the boot, about face and try to make it past the band and the top of my socks to get to my skin. Of course a good spraying on top of all that defeats them altogether.

I do some work for Wisconsin Pharmacal Company(The makers of Repel). Permanone is the way to go. It will work up to two weeks and through a few washings.

Another thing that has helped me is wearing under armor clothing. I have not had more than 2 ticks on me from my ankles to my neck in the last 3 years.. It really does a good job on keeping them of your body. Still have them on your clothing of course and really feel them on your neck, but hardly ever one attached on your torso.
