And you read that post wrong. I pm'd him with the instructions how to use it. I was telling him he needs to read the instructions off a can of PAM.

    I do have to say this, just because somebody doesnt recommend the same things as you do, theres no reason to attack people. I was allready told in this thread I was stupid (I'm not 12 and I'm more mature then to waste my time replying to that person), your opinions mean a lot (Yes Robin that includes you, I've always respected all of the oeoples opinions on this board).
    But sometimes, somebody isnt going to share your opinions, you should respect that.
    I'm terribly sorry, this is all my fault I'm afraid. What I should have said (and actually meant to say) was to read the list of ingredients, not the directions. I think you'll find that it's very similar. My apologies for causing any confusion. Chalk it up to yet another senior moment.

    nah there is no confusion until some one stated the instructions for pam were the same lol

    is the active ingredient in rapel the same? if so this could be interesting to try if there are no other toxins in it that can be harmful after the fact.

    Why did the EPA make it illegal in only New York? It isn't illegal here in GA. Fortunately I've only had to use it once (yeah it's that darn good). I know an old school recipe that I was told to use on my mite problem. I "attempted" it but I was a idiot and bought the wrong supplies. I'll look up what the ingredients were and post them here.

    The major ingredient in Prevent-A-Mite is permethrin, I'm trying to confirm the home-made solution's ingredients, it's extremely simple only 2 drops of permethrin and water but I'm confirming what the Permethrin comes from.

    If permethrin is illegal in NY then you're out of luck for my solution.
