I mixed my own Permethrin-10 from TSC with water to dilute to a little more than 0.5% permethrin. Sprayed all over shirt, pants, socks, and boots. I was in the woods helping a buddy hang 2 stands, walked through plenty of seed tick and chigger territory, and have not had 1 bite show up. Well worth the money. Buy the permethrin for livestock because it's concentrated and you can dilute it and make it last longer, and saves a ton of money. Sawyers is a ripoff.

If you are already bitten up bad. I found that if you get in the shower, and put either Selson Blue, or Head and Shoulders all over the area, let it sit for 10 minutes, wash off, it seems to take the itch out for a while at least. I got into em bad this year too.
