How much of the Martins 13.3% permethrin to water ratio if going to soak hunting clothes in it?  I've used 10% before and I think it was 1/2 oz to 19 ounces of water?  Or something like that.  I would roll up pants and shirt and let them soak for a couple hours and then hang to dry.

That's what I did.  I found the mix to have an odor.  Sawyers never had an odor.  After a few days in turkey camp the Martin's odor gets overwhelmed tho.   :TooFunny:

You might have the stuff that has an oil base. I believe it's martins that has a water base and no smell (I think)

Some of the Martins 10% is oil based and has an odor, I have found that for some reason many of the water-based ones will not ship into NY for some odd reason and the sites that do have it and will ship it here seem rather sketchy.

Really I didn't know that. Do you know which ones are water based? Could be some good info to pass along.

I use the Martins 10%, I mix 1 1/2 oz. to 1 quart and it seems to work pretty well for me.
Thanks to all who share this great passion and the wealth of knowledge you bring to this board.

No I am sorry I do not. I have not looked since earlier this year. I had somebody suggest some that was 13.3% and was supposed to be water based but it is not. I will use that on the clothes I just walk around on trails with, but I need to find some water based myself for hunting.

Just pulled up Martins 13.3% label and they recommend 1 1/3 ozs in a quart of water for.5%.  If you are going to hang your clothes to dry, then get a quart bottle, add 1 1/3 ozs of 13.3%, fill to the brim and spray away.  A quart will saturate your clothes really well.  GREAT stuff at .5%.  Ticks just climb on, get drunk, fall off and die.
