Is it actually 98.11% pure DEET, or is it just that 98.11% of the "active" ingredients are DEET? The packaging doesn't really make it clear.

I have mine right in front of me, it says... "Active Ingredient DEET 98.11% other ingredients 1.89%" All other products I researched show lower proportions od DEET. It works very well. Robbin

Says active ingredient is DEET and "other ingredients" is 1.89%. So I'd say it's 98% DEET. I love this stuff. Very little goes a long way, and is long lasting. Has gotten a friend thru a summer in Ghana and me a Mekong cruise. And I always get bit. But not with this stuff. We were told that anything with more than 25% or so DEET is a waste, but on my trips I've given it to many folks who brought weaker stuff. And saved more than a few who relied on "alternative" herbal sprays. When the real "alternative" is dengue fever, malaria and worse, I want the real stuff.

As Robbin Rohner responded, "Active Ingredient DEET 98.11% other ingredients 1.89%"This is what my bottle says as well. This should mean that 98.11% of the product is DEET. If you are wondering about the purity of the active ingredient, you would need to contact the manufacturer.

It is a time released DEET product. Go to the 3M web site or to their MSDS informational site for the information. I believe the prior answer of 34% is pretty much right-on. It a great product.

Sorry about the delay in answering, just got back from Africa today. It's 0.5% Permethrin. We treated our clothes before we left. No insect bites at all in 2 weeks in Africa.

Fairly standard for any insecticide or arachnicide . Too long to list here but probably similar to DEET.. Main active ingredients are pyrthrins.

No, I do not know the percent. It is not listed on the bottle. It does say pure on the label. I am very happy with this product and will continue to buy it and use it morning and night. Not to brag, but my skin looks far younger than my 57 years, and it has really looked better since I have been using this serum (which has been since January).

I'm sorry, I don't have the box. My memory is that there is less than 4%. However, it's by far the best detergent I've found since our "Brain Chain" started fooling around with soaps. Everything comes out sparkling and clean.

I don't know. Some manufacturers don't reveal all the inactive ingredients, especially in LONG-ACTING Products since this often involves trade secrets for the LONG-ACTING Component. I would inquire of the manufacturer if it is important to you.

I just looked at the bottle and it doesn't state any percentage. Now you got me curious. Maybe we have to google the company and ask. Keep in touch.

Hi! You are correct, even the Package states 100% pure. I do not know who, in particular wrote that specific description, but is obviously a typo. :)

The sheet my Dr. gave me from 2010 consumer reports says it's 25% Deet. Children should not have more than 30%. This product listed at the top of the consumer reports with Off Deep Woods Sportsman II, Cutter backwoods Unscented, and Off Family Care Smooth & Dry.

I do not know for certain, but it seems to be pure DE. And the price is great for the amount you get. I believe I mentioned in my review that is seems moist, and slightly pale yellow, which I surmised indicated a raw and natural product. I would recommend asking the seller about the purity question. I found it acceptable, but you should make yourself comfortable about any questions prior to purchase.

I would not say it's 100% castor oil. It's a formular of castor and something else. It did the job. I saw no more pest.

As you say, it does not say it is organic on the product. It only says that it is 100% pure.

If you "roll over" the image on the web page it lists the active ingredient as Bifenthrin 0.115 percent. They also sell (or have relabeled) a product as Home Defense MAX that has the same amount of Bifenthrin. A little sneaky there if you don't read labels.

The active ingredient, capsaisin, the label says .1% -- the write up says 1% -- that's quite a difference. I'd trust the label on the package.

I can only say is says 99.9 pure and I have been using this a while with no side effects. Very pleased with product.This is to be diluted in a carrier oil for external application topically. I've been using 3/4 oz DMSO liquid unfragranced to 4 oz of carrier oil in a spraybottle.

The ingredients in this product should be clearly labeled on the actual spray container. It actually is not "my" ingredient list ... I am not the manufacturer only purchased it once myself. Hope this clears up any confusion you might have.
