How long does it take for this spray to dry? Or how soon we can get back to the house after treatment?

The spray drys in like 30-40 minutes on the carpet, and a little more for hardwood floors. If you use a fan it drys faster. The smell goes aways just as fast, as long as you have a window open. Good luck! I think this product really works.

I over sprayed on some hard wood floors and after two days I had to take a dry cloth and wipe the over spray areas...where I lightly sprayed it dried in about two hours...I waited about two hours before going back in after spray..Very little smell and the zoecon precor 200 got rid of all the fleas...It's been 4 months and still flealess...Good product but overspray leaves the floor very slippery and you need to be super careful walking on the overspray...

it usually dries pretty quick. Takes about 2 hours to dry on the outer shell, & about 10 hours to be able to handle it. So about 1 day to be safe. nice stuff but a bit hard to work with, but I use it anyway.

It doesn't dry. It's just a treatment which is exposed for 5-15 minutes depending on your initial test.

Leave it on your face anywhere from 30-60 min or until it starts drying. Do not rinse afterwards. Treatment is 3x's/week.

From label: fully effective up to 7 days. Also on label: spray and work into the coat, and pet bedding. Repeat as necessary. From me: if you need to spray your pet every day, you have an environmental problem and need to spray the house and yard with an appropriate product first. Be advised that white or light colored animals will get a yellowish stain on their coat from this product. Works great, though!

When you put it on, there's a strong smell but put Bengay at 10 I would say this is more of a five and it does dissipate much quicker. Gosh, how long to dissipate, I'm not sure, but less than an hour? To be honest, once dry, I don't notice it, so however long it takes to dry once you put it on. I don't use Biofreeze or Paloxin so I can't compare those two.

We just got it a few days ago. It comes with two large zip lock bags. You dilute some of the concentrate with water and shake. Roll up your i.e. shirt and soak it in the concentrate for a few hours. Take the clothing out and hang to dry outside. It sounds somewhat labor intensive, but worth it if it works. I read an EPA fact sheet on permethrin, and it stated that it slowly breaks down with exposure to sunlight and oxygen, so it is probably best to seal the clothes in a bag and store when you are not wearing them to make the application last longer.

I sprayed my living room, bedrooms and hallway and had my dog tied up outside while I did that and then I shut the door and took him for a nice long 2 hour walk and did a couple little errands and we were gone maybe a total of 3 - 4 hours and then we both went back in the house. He didn't react to it at all (no sniffing the carpet or anything). Hope this helps.

I waited 72 hrs and insured that everything was as dry as possible. I found other instructions that said as little as 8-24 hours, but I wanted to be sure that I wasn't trapping uncured material under a paint designed to seal moisture and not breathe. BTW it worked and I have had no problems since.

The only thing I've every really used was in a squeeze tube and was purchased at the local Ace Hardware. It's a clear gel that drys to the touch in 10 minutes or so but takes 12 to 24 hours to cure. That cure time is unfortunate but I will say it is tenacious after that and no further repair to that spot will ever be needed again. If you happen upon something faster let me know! Thanks.

Probably 6-12 hours, depending on temp and humidity. I installed it at night in my garage (around 9pm) and it was cured/dry the next morning. It was in late April and it was a cool, non-humid night too. I'm willing to bet it would be "set" within 2-4hrs with decent circulation and it seemed to dry fairly quickly when I was applying it so it may take even less time than that.

Hi, Susan, it's SUPPOSED to "age" for 24 hours, but I think that's just so the smell goes away. It was dry to the touch in a couple hours. And that was with two coats of spray.

I have been told that I should spray the area every day (once a day) for at least 30 days. Then you can back off to a few times a week, then sporadically. I would certainly try that and see how it goes. Good luck with that!

I'm not sure what you are asking, but there is a 24 hour recommended drying period. I live in Florida and used this product to seal my chimney flashing after spending $20,000 with roofers who never did fix the problem. This sealant fixed it first time. It was applied during the heat of the summer in June, had to be at least 105 on the roof top.

You spray it on damp hair and either blow-dry it or go out in the sun for 2-4 hours!

I give it about 10 minutes. My skin is dry, may take longer with skin types that are not dry.

I see no reason to be concerned about how long you keep the spray or how fast you use it. Because I spray our bedding daily, my bottle last approximately two months. I did notice that the fine spray works best. That covers more area. I do not see a problem, even if you had it for a longer period of time before using it up. Stringbean
