about half-way though, they started issuing permethrin to us. By the time I left, hardly anyone around was getting it.

In volume of just the small bottle?

Concentrated, in a large bottle. You would dilute it yourself in a spray bottle

SWKTDweller

Also you would heavily dilute it and spray it on your clothes and sheets

It works. Use it for camping and backpacking. Spray your clothes. Let it soak in and forget about bug spray.
