Insect Shield exists to help protect you from insect bites. At the core of our brand is Insect Shield technology, a proprietary permethrin treatment bonded to fabric fibers that offers long-lasting repellency without changing the look, feel, or function of the items you wear and use outside.

For more than 25 years, Insect Shield has helped people add another layer of protection for time spent outdoors. Today, that includes clothing, gear, and accessories, services that let consumers send in their own clothes to be treated, and DIY options like Permethrin Spray for treating shoes and gear.
