Prevent 100% of Bug Bites with these 2 Military Hacks!

The link for the permethrin concentrate mix are in the description as well as links for clothing i'm wearing. Remember it's 10 parts water to 1 part concentrate for 1% spray and 20 parts water to 1 part concentrate for .5% spray.

For over thirty years, I have spent time in the woods, camping, hunting and bushcrafting. I taught RAF cadets the basics of survival shelter building and never was bitten by a tick. I was lucky to be hardly bitten by any midges or mosquitos or bugs! I always dressed appropriately and virtually never wore any chemical repellant or insecticides.
I recently retired and moved house. I realised a few weeks ago, after just gardening in my urban back garden, while preparing to take a bath that evening, that I had been bitten by a tick on the outside of my left upper arm!! Bastard!
Anyway, a trip to the doctor and a course of antibiotics and hopefully I'm good to go!
Always, tuck clothing in. Always have decent boots and close that gap around the joint with your trousers ('pants' in the US!) and always wear a belt.
Sleeves down if not too hot, but that will also protect your arms from too much UV exposure and a later risk of skin cancer. Hats; always good too and in and around tall foliage where deer are prevalent and therefore a high risk of ticks, gloves are really helpful if pushing through that taller undergrowth.
Great video on a vital topic. 😊

Here are some clothing tips, saturate your clothes with bug dope, then apply a wax to your pants especially denim because bugs can still get through soft fabric, I suggest next to a fire get covered in that smokey smell, I would love to hear any advice from anyone.

I just ware a flea & tick collar.😂

Ive considered spraying permethrin on rags and wrapping those around the leg in a few places. ticks crawl up. I can also take them off when Im not in need and they arent in skin contact

Is this solution odorless like sawyer?

My Dad served 3 years in Vietnam and 38 years in the military. He took garlic supplements for as long as I can remember. He swore by it for mosquito repellent.

Can you use the spray like you do with "deet, off" by spraying your hands then rub on to the other exposed areas? Hands, arms, face. Common sense tells you to shut your eyes and mouth when doing the face.

Cool vid thank you 😊

Illegal to use in Canada, due to the honey bees.

I presume gaiters are as good (or better) than tucking pants into boots?

So... While we're on the subject... You think there's any truth to the govt-engineered tick borne illness theory...? Asking for a friend

This might be a stupid question, but does the permethrin wash out into the washing machine? I live in an apartment with a shared laundry room and there are families with small children, and I'm just wondering if that means that machine washing my treated clothes is a no-go. Never used that kind of chemical treatment method before.

B12 drops taken the day before you go out in the woods , hiking working or hunting, the B12 ticks biting flies and mosquitoes do not like the smell or taste of the bitterness that the b12 in the sweat. I also make a bug repellent that is natural and it is safe to use on clothes and skin. I have psoriasis and I use it on my skin. My bug repellent doesn't have one chemical in it and I use all natural products that are from the woods and things you would not believe that works but I also make scent killer attractant scents and also deodorizing spray that will cover up almost ever scent or foul smell.

I get bite by mosquitos so much my whole life just sitting in my room. I think I’m immune. Here in the Deep South

Vicks Vapor Rub on your skin will deter them.. put a ring of it around your ankles when out in the woods..
From my experience vitamin B does nothing to stop being bitten..

Being 50 years old, I remember some bug application from Muskol 100 percent deet. worked great! I will try your recipe and be happy.

So i thought you said 1%? You’re mixing 10%

Thanks for this.

The one thing I do not see people taking about…..How to stay covered and protected while relieving oneself? It’s hard for us ladies to stay covered when squatting in the bush to do our business. I guess we eat lots of garlic, fill ourselves with vitamins, cover ourselves with essential oils, pray, move fast and hope for the best. 😉. Wearing a long skirt for a lady is easy enough when just urinating, or buying those special urinals to pee like a man standing up, but the bowel movements are much more tricky for all of us, 😅and we have to squat and expose. 😮

I cured my 2 Siberians with Japanese knot wood herb . They had been on doxycycline several times and the disease continued but the herb worked and cured them

I have terrible check problems in my yard so what I have learned is that text do not like oil. When I’m working in my tomato garden, I always put on sunscreen and I topped that off with either some greasy Hawaiian tropic tanning oil or baby oil they hate itso if you can’t be dressed in all those clothes, then you can put on your bathing suit shorts and like a cover-up and put that oil on and not worry.

I grew up in prime chigger country, N. TX, I am not sure if chiggers are a vector for any disease, but keeping them away saves a person considerable misery. So we used to put powdered sulfur in a sock & keep it in the sock drawer and when going out pound it on our shoes, ankles, and lower legs to thoroughly "powder ourselves. We often ran around barefooted so having that layer of powder on our feet really helped too. Sure it smells odd, what insect repellent doesn't.
Stay safe.

The meat eating allergy is called alpha gal syndrome
And I caught it last year
Makes you allergic to mammal meat
Severe cases can make you allergic to any product from a mammal like milk and cheese

And all it takes is a bite
From an infected tech, not like Lyme disease where the tech usually has to be attached to 24 hours

Saywer is 0.05% solution according to the bottle. Looked at the jug I bought, 1.28 ounces/gallon of water nets you a 0.1% solution with the 10% permethrin. They don't list any solution as concentrated as the 1 ounce permethrin to 10 ounces of water you say to use.

10 to 1. Isn't that 10%?

It begs the question: why did our government intentionally release millions of these infected tick vectors all along the East coast after closing/ relocation of Plum Island, a military biological research facility. These hoardes of ticks have been making their way across the country, infecting people & animals ever since they closed and relocated the facility, sometime after 2008.

I am using the Permethrin bandana and on my dogs doesn't seem to help only around your neck area

I ordered the Permethrin and I sent it back because I found out it has carcinogens in it
So now I'm using lemon eucalyptus peppermint and I've been dressing like you show for years
I'm doing all right with no bugs but my dogs picking up ticks no fleas just when we go out in the woods so I have to brush them when I get them home I sprayed them with DIY bug spray that's with essential oils before we go out and I'm afraid to use the Permethrin
My husband died of cancer and I really don't want to use something that has carcinogens in it so convinced me😂

Great Video. I have rewatched and shared with multiple people.

If you're going to run through the jungle start by eating more garlic. Spray your loose fitting clothing with permathrine including yout boony hat, drive on rag and mosquito head net. If ticks or leeches are a problem, blouse your boots. Carry with you light leather gloves. Button up at dusk and dawn weather you see them or not and you will be good to go. A scartched open bite will fester up fast. Mosquitos kill.
This is jungle bunny. Peace,Out.

Finally someone brought up Alpha gal had no idea it exited till I was diagnosed with it. My house is surrounded by woods and these ticks are everywhere here. Most neighbors have this and some cannot even be around meat cooking and go into throat closing.

I tuck my pants into my socks to get good knee articulation. Extend the concept to tall boots!

I bought permethrin-treated gaiters years ago for the same reason.

Thx

What clothing and boots do you have / wear? Where can they be purchased?

Do you also recommend spraying your boots with Permethrin?

Quick question… If I spray the clothes outside and let that stuff dry on them, would I be able to wash them and would that take away from the effectiveness? Or is it OK to wash them? As long as I don’t put them in the dryer of course. Thanks for letting me ask.

Brother, no lie, 😂 I just pulled a tick off my neck while sitting in my truck watching this hahahaa I didn't even go in the woods yet today

Mosquitos bite right through clothing though. What a pain.

My friend's wife died from malaria after being bit by mosquitoes while serving in the Christian ministry in Africa. Where we live in Louisiana we have to be careful due to West Nile virus as well as tick related Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever occasionally. Thankfully where I live we don't have huge problems with mosquitoes or ticks normally.

I take my yearly hike through the woods in the middle of winter. No bugs and crisp clean air.

Have known northern Canadian blackflies to get inside pants legs even when they’re secured in boots. One fellow had to have his pants leg cut off, the bite swelled him up so much

Beware of the Lonestar tick- Alpha Gal is real- my daughter gets dizxy & has heart palpatations. No mammal foods- meats or products like butter or cheese. Eat only seafood & fowl meat. No gelatin capsules, many OTC meds have mammal products. Crazy! No cure.

Ticks don't bother me, it's mosquitos & this video didn't really address that. I don't tuck my pants into my shoes because my first line of protection against ticks is feeling them crawling up my legs. When I find them attached, it's almost always in my armpit area.

Won't work in Australia. Insects down here know how to beat all of this stuff.

Two of my family have Alph gal, very debilitating.

Awesome tips thank you

Does anyone know if permethrin expires? If I keep a pre-mixed bottle in my truck will it degrade over time?
