Your preferred repellents for camping, hunting & fishing ?

Have always washed my clothes in Permethrin. That said, I forgot back in April and ended up with STARi. It sucked but apparently not as bad as other tick borne illnesses.

That seems to be the thing these days. Some guys are soaking their tents, hammocks, and clothes in a permethrin solution, then letting them dry thoroughly before using. The last time I was in Walmart, I saw a liquid permethrin product by Sawyer's that is made for this. Had instructions as to dilution factor on the bottle.
