The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
The World Health Organization (WHO)
National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety (NIOSH)
The American Academy of Family Physicians
The Public Health Agency of Canada
Insect Shield represents a promising new approach to the longstanding problem of protection against both insects and the diseases they can carry. All of the above agencies actively encourage at-risk individuals to use permethrin-treated clothing as a protective measure against insect-borne diseases.
