Insecticide treated nets (ITNs) are an important item in the reduction of the spread of Malaria and other vector borne diseases (leishmaniasis and filariasis). Permethrin is an insecticide that will daze mosquitoes on contact, on repeated contact the insect will die. The dosage used on our nets does not harm humans. Permethrin treatment will dissipate with time and washing.

Permethrin is a very safe and effective insecticide which the WHO* recommends for the reduction of malaria and other vector borne diseases.

Permethrin is a synthetic insecticide that is very safe to humans and quickly degrades in the natural environment, leaving no residual toxicity. Sea To Summit mosquito nets are treated with a low concentration of Permethrin that is toxic and deterrent to insects such as mosquitoes, bed bugs, fleas and midges. Developed from naturally occurring pyrethrum which has a long and safe history for the effective control of insects, Permethrin adheres well to fabrics.
