Dr. Roach: The permethrin in factory-applied gear lasts longer than self-applied permethrin, but it’ll gradually become less effective, especially when it gets exposed to sunlight and oxygen. Getty Images

DEAR DR. ROACH: My son is going to be spending several weeks on a lake. I was looking at a permethrin-impregnated sleeping bag liner, and I’m wondering if this type of treated sleeping bag is good to prevent bites from various insects. Is it worth the money? -- J.M.M.
