Hi there, Yes, the BugsAway technology uses Permethrin to protect against bugs. The tech behind our BugsAway gear has been perfected after years of intensive research and field study. Using Insect Shield&rsquo;s&reg; proprietary formula, 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. The formula is called InsectShield. We recommend visiting their website to check all the necessary details, including the testing examples and formula.

Hi there, The Women's BugsAway&reg; Damselfly Jacket is designed for cooler weather when exploring the outside. It is very breathable, durable and abrasion-resistant. For a windproof garment, we suggest picking another item that would protect you against wind in harsher environment.

<h2 class="bvseo-question">
Is there any sun protection or UPF rating? The men's has a slight one so wonder if this one has one too. It seems the shoulders &amp; hood would be higher.

Hi, we are sorry, however there is no sun protection in the Women's BugsAway&reg; Damselfly Jacket, just the Insect Shield&reg; insect repellent.
