What does everyone use now. The old permanone was awesome. When i used i never got ticks or chiggers. The new permanone must have been changed because it does not work as good. I bought some sawyers tick spray that military endorses. It blows also. Any thing on the market now that works as well as the old permanone?

Permanone still works for me. Duranone also seems to work pretty well.

For turkey hunting, it sounds a little strange, but I use whatever bug spray I can get my hands on. Ant and Roach spray just whatever. If it will kill ants and other stuff it will kill a tick. The stuff from the dollar general or dollar store works great.

Really bowriter? Do you still have some of the old permanone or is it recently been bought because the new can i got is worthless.

This is really baffling me. Permanone is always what i used. Maybe i got a bad can but the one i have now is worthless. I guess i will by another and try it.

Look for anything with Permethrin as the active ingredient. I usually go to co-op, they have some concentrate for spraying around barns. Just mix it with water down to the %level of Permanone and spray your clothes and let them dry. $10 will buy you about 10 gallons once you mix it with water. Also good to spray around the outside of your house for ticks, fleas, ants, etc.
