Where We Are: 

• Vector control on combat uniforms 

 Requirements generated in 2010

 Permethrin was only approved chemistry

 Some garments could not be treated due to fabrics

• Armed Forces Pest Management Board (AFPMB) staffed 

endorsement letter for Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health 

Affairs and Secretary of the Army signature

 Endorses EPA approved chemistries for vector control

 Must also meet Services requirements

 Endorsement Letter signed – July 2019

Where We Are Going: 

• Army testing Permethrin vs Etofenprox on uniforms

• Army initiating performance based vector control Purchase 

Description (PD)

• AFPMB/Services/Medical community to contribute
