Permethrin is the chemical form of pyrethrin, which comes from =
chrysanthemums. Pyrethrin is available in many insecticides sold in =
garden stores. It is said to irritate skin, but we sprayed it on the =
bottoms of pants and shirt cuffs. We haven=E2=80=99t had any ticks =
(yet!) on us. Or skin irritation.

Subject: RE: [NatureNS] Ticks Out - the Permethrin Option
Wearing permethrin treated clothing reduces tick bites and chances of =
contacting Lyme disease 93-100% but we do not have access to this =
preventative measure in Canada.Permethrin is very safe used this way =
(bound to textile), especially for children. (DEET is not!)
Please sign on to the petition to pressure government to give =
Canadians access to permethrin-treated clothing for repelling ticks/Lyme =
disease, especially to protect children.=20
Go to www.noticks.ca
-----This effort, just getting off the ground, followed from some =
discussion last year on NatureNS about preventing tick bites and my =
frustration in trying to get some answers from the PMRA. Support via =
the petition is much appreciated, also any inside info on why the =
"Permethrin Option" is pretty well absent from public discourse about =
BLT/Lyme in Canada.
