I would just make it at 7oz that 1/4 oz difference isn't much Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

Quote from: Bagg-it Tag-it on April 29, 2019, 11:31:43 AMYes...for permithrin 10 to get .5% solution... If you want a gallon, mix one gallon water with 6.75 oz of permithrin 10 concentrate. If you want to fill a spray bottle...mix one oz of permithrin 10 to twenty ozs of water in a spray bottle. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkYes I do want to do a spray bottle so thank you for that. I want to test it fist because I tend to have sensitive skin/allergies to some things. That is why I have been using nothing but Tide, ivory soap and Suave shampoo for years because they don't make me itch.

I did have one problem though, I could not get the measuring side do measure out the ounces for me, the other side would fill but not that side, so I just poured in what looked right. What do I do to get that thing to measure it for me? This is the one I purchased. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00061MSS0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Make sure you allow your clothes to dry completely before using them. Do not hang in direct sunlight, as it will break down much faster.

Quote from: Turkeyman on May 02, 2019, 03:27:52 PMNot rocket science guys. Just "fool around" with the caps and you'll figure out how to get the proper amount. Did you take high school physics? Remember whereas C1V1=C2V2. C=concentration, V=volume. Personally I use the 36.8% concentrate bought from Amazon and to spray (somewhat soak) all my clothes I mix 2 gallons for my garden sprayer. Thus C1=.368, C2=.005 and V2=128 oz. Thus V1 solves to 1.7 oz. So I use 2 oz. for just a bit stronger. I've already hunted MO and KS for a 2 week period and never picked up a tick. My buddy's grandson, sans permethrin, picked up 9 ticks in the same period.
