THE ACTIVE INGREDIENTS
Nosilife insect protective technology uses Permethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid. Pyrethroids occur naturally in the environment and can be extracted from the Chrysanthemum plant. Permethrin is synthesized in a laboratory, so it is more readily available for commercial use.
Any insects that come into contact with NosiLife clothing will either be repelled, or risk being killed by the treatment.
