Preliminary studies show that treating Navy Working Uniforms (NWUs) with permethrin effectively repels mosquitoes for up to six washes. Various application techniques, such as hand-compressed sprayers, IDA kits, and aerosols, can be used for permethrin treatment. For additional guidance, refer to Personal Protective Measures against Insects (TG 36) and the Contingency Pest Management Guide (TG 24). These resources provide vital information on the effective use of chemical treatments for military personnel to maintain safety from insect-borne diseases.
