Discussion on Insect Shield
Insect Shield is only a kind of insect repellent technology, does not mean that all
insect-proof clothes are used Insect Shield.
This is a surface treatment technology, similar to the anti-splashing treatment,
is an additional treatment in the fabric surface,
the official propaganda said it can withstands 70 times washing.
They use permethrin formula which is colorless and tasteless.
Permethrin is actually very common, it is a low-toxic pesticides,
water repellent and mosquito coils contain this ingredient.
Although it is not harmful for the body, but it still has an impact on the environment,
so do not wash Insect Shield clothes at outdoors.
Therefore, Insect Shield not only anti insect, but to make clothing keep mosquito function,
wearing a long-term insect repellent clothes,
apparently more than spray insect repellent water from time to time to be more convenient.
