Ben's Ben's Clothing and Gear Insect Repellent 24 oz.

Q: What are the other .95% of ingredients?

Thank you for your question on the Ben’s Complete Clothing and Gear. All inert ingredients have been evaluated and approved by EPA for use in insecticidal products like Ben’s Complete Clothing and Gear. The EPA only requires that the active ingredient, in this case permethrin, be listed on the product label. The inert ingredients are a proprietary formula that has reviewed and approved by the EPA for use on clothing and gear.

Q: Is there a strong chemical smell with this and if so, how long does it last? Also, has anyone used it around cats?

It is said to be highly toxic to cats. Do not let them come in contact with any object that has been sprayed, including dogs, until it has thoroughly dried. I don't know what happens if a dog is sprayed and after it has dried the dog is out in the rain and then comes into contact with cat while wet. I have used a different brand of Permethrin, a 10% concentrate diluted 19-1 to soak my clothes and then allowed to dry. I am concerned about being in the rain and then having one of my cat friends jump on my lap.

Q: How many sets of clothes can this 24oz bottle spray?

Thanks for your question. Ben's Clothing & Gear 24 oz. contains enough insect repellent to treat approximately four sets of clothes.

Q: Can this be used on patio furniture and will it stain white clothing?

Hi - Wendy from Tall Ridge here - Thank you for your inquiry! The active ingredient, Permethrin, is for use with clothing, tents, and other gear. During the drying process, it tightly bonds with the fibers of the treated garment. It will not stain or damage clothing, fabrics, plastics, finished surfaces, or any of your outdoor gear. I hope that is helpful!
