Insect Blocker requires no re-application or special care of any kind and is so tightly bonded to fabric fibers that it retains its effectiveness for up to 70 washings. It provides invisible, odorless protection that will last through six months of constant exposure to sun and rain and is EPA registered without any restriction so everyone can use it, including infants and toddlers, and women who are pregnant or nursing. Insect Blocker turns clothing and gear into safe, long-lasting, effective insect protection to keep bugs at bay so you can enjoy the Greater Outdoors in peace.
