Re: Woodsman's "Off".
Allen,
You were right about DEET. It is an insect repellent, not an insecticide. I knew I'd heard bad stuff about it so I couldn't leave it alone. It's not quite benign.

Chemical Name
N,N-diethyl-3-methyl-benzamide or N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide
"Products containing N,N-diethyl-m-toluamide and isomers (Deet) are beneficial as insect repellents, but have also been associated with dermal and neurological reactions in humans (3)."
