Soaking Clothes In Permethrin

I was a licensed pesticide applicator years ago and it was allowed to be used in kitchens with some cautions (mostly, don't have food out when spraying). I'll agree that it's probably the safest pesticide out there.
 
Unless you drink some of it, I doubt much danger. Seriously, I would rather have a tiny risk with permethrin than a much bigger one with tick bite fever! I have been eaten alive by ticks in Africa and how I didn't get tick bite fever I don't know- just really luc
I am goin to fly to Johannesburg and the hunt in Limpopo with my brother in a couple of days.

I just soaked my hunting clothes in permethrin 0.5% home made solution and waiting for them to dry. Are there any safety concerns regarding permethrin? Thanks for any advice

I sprayed the outside of my hunting clothes with .5% Permethrin, not the inside. and also wore an unsprayed T-shirt and underwear. no problem and no ticks.

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
