Why Insect Shield®?
Insect Shield® is a revolutionary technology which deters insects by using an EPA-approved, molecularly-bonded application of Permethrin. This long-lasting treatment [effective up to 70 washes], offers scientifically-proven protection against; mosquitoes, ticks, ants, flies, fleas, chiggers and midges [no-seeums] - many of which can carry dangerous diseases such as malaria or Lyme disease. Insect Shield® is colorless and odorless and is effective without needing to apply chemicals [such as DEET] directly onto the skin. Insect Shield® is available in several different products throughout the COCOON product line.
Why Pima cotton?
Pima cotton is a rare, long fibered cotton that is spun into a fine yarn. The result is a very lightweight and soft, yet durable fabric COCOON TravelSheets™ and MummyLiners™ made of Pima cotton are substantially lighter and more compact than those of regular cotton. A great compromise between regular cotton and silk!
