Hi there, Bug-blocking Insect Shield&reg; treatment gives you the invisible, odorless protection of Permethrin and lasts up to 70 washes. After that time, the repellency cannot be restored as Permethrin is tightly bound to fabric fibers. This creates the built-in BugsAway effect without the use of topical treatments like bug spray and other insect repellents. We suggest using some topical treatments after 70 washes to get protection against bugs. We apologize for any inconvenience caused. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via https://www.exofficio.com/support/contact-us or through LiveChat. We&rsquo;re available Mon-Fri, 9AM - 5PM EST Thank you!
