Navy Entomology Center of Excellence Is Your Uniform Protecting You?  Permethrin treated uniforms protect you from biting insects like mosquitoes.  Uniforms can be treated at the factory or by hand.  Check your uniform labels to see if they are treated with permethrin. See your local preventive medicine authority if your uniform does not have one of these labels. For more information, contact your cognizant NEPMU or the Navy Entomology Center of Excellence (904-542-2424), or reach out to your preventive medicine authority.
