Episode Synopsis

Sometimes you have to read the small print... 🧐 I've been posting about something quite weird in my stories. My new shorts have pemethrin in them (an insecticide) 😱. I didn't know when I bought them. But then I looked a bit closer at the label. "This textile contains a biocidal product with anti-insect properties. Active ingredient: Permethrin. May produce an allergic reaction." Yup. You can say that again. When I wear them I don't feel so well. What are your thoughts on insecticides like pemethrin, pesticides and other toxins being absorbed through the skin? PS - I asked @craghoppers for my money back but they said no 😥
