There is provided an impregnated netting or fabric for insect or tick killing and repellence which comprises an insecticide and/or a repellant, and a film forming component which reduces wash off and degradation of the insecticide component from the netting or fabric. This is achieved by forming a water resistant and optionally an oil resistant film which is a molecular shield around the fibres incorporating the insecticide or the repellant, either by integration of the insecticide or the repellant in the film, or by forming a substantial continuous film surrounding the insecticide/repellant together with the fibre. |
