Jon, I use 1 0z to a liter. If you want it to stick a little better, you can add a few drops of soap to it. Spray your hunting clothes around the waist and cuffs. Your shirt where it tucks in and the collars/cuffs. Spray the entire boot outside. Key is to hang them up and let them dry. In the dry state, it isn't supposed to kill your liver. I use plain water. Retreat every two weeks.
Here's to a tickless world

I would think it would depend on the original strength of the permethrin . I use a 10% solution and I've been mixing it 1 oz to 15 oz water. You don't want to mix too much. I mixed a big spray bottle of it last Spring and the stuff congealed in the sprayer and I had to throw it away.

Hee Hee, I been in worse places than Bobs. Last year as soon as me and Ron entered the woods we heard squirrels jumpin in the trees up by the edge of the cornfield.
We backed out of the woods and headed down the edge of the field. We was wadein thru waist tall weeds down the whole edge. I got nary a tick last year up there.
If you get any spray on you your liver easily eliminates it. When it's dry it is not readily absorbed thru your skin.
