Hi All,
If this question is inappropriate or irrelevant to your forums - feel free to ignore/delete.
What could the insect repellent DEET be diluted with? (spraying yourself from an original repellent bottle)
The reason for asking is I have two out of date bottles that I would like to refill @ 20%.
A bottle of 'ready to use' costs the same if I buy 20% or ~95%
The ingredients list deet(20%) and 'taste aversive agent'.
Could IPA or lab water be used to dilute the high strength 'over the counter UK' to create a 20%?
For short term use (<3 weeks in 52)
Also, can I dilute my cars petrol with 50% grey water and achieve a more efficient combustion?
Thanks in advance.
