Title: Speaking of Permithrin, you can mix your own!!!
Post by: fireman_3311 on October 07, 2012, 05:46:00 PM
I used to buy Sawyers Permithrin to treat my clothes with, but a buddy shared his recipe to make my own!!!  

Here's the Sawyers bottle I mix in...

And here's the concentrate that you can find at your local pet supply store!!

Use 1 oz of the Sentry 35 day flea dip for dogs to 12 oz of water!!!  I've done this for the last 2 years, from spring turkeys to camping in the woods at civil war reenactment a to early season bowhunts, and it works!!!  

Permithrin is to treat your clothes, do not spray it on your skin!!!  

I also spray my dog with the same mix from time to time!!!

I do the same but with a cocentrate from local farm store that has mix %'s for many home and livestock applications. $6 will make many many refills. Enough to treat yard and hunting/ camping clothes for a few years.
