Featuring Tecnu Products for the relief of Poison Ivy, Poison Oak, Poison Sumac
100% Deet
The 10 Hour Insect Repellent by Tec Laboratories Repels Mosquitoes that may carry West Nile Virus.
100% DEET! (N, N-Diethyl-m-toluamide). With just one application,
Tec Laboratories' strongest repellent will protect you from
biting insects, including mosquitoes and ticks, for up to
10 full hours.
Preventative
measures should be taken to prevent reintroduction of
poison ivy, poison oak and sumac from personal belongings.
Unfortunately,
urushiol, the skin irritant oil produced from those
plants can last up to one year.
We
recommend cleaning with TECNU to decontaminate clothing
and other objects after exposure to poison oak, poison
ivy and sumac.
In
1954, after 15 years of research and testing of over 11,000
compounds, DEET was developed by the United States Department
of Agriculture for the U.S. Army. This formulation has been
found to be the most effective insect repellent available.
Tec
Laboratories' products are standard issue in the first aid
kits of utilities, railroads, park crews and foresters.
