    I had DEET on my skin and sat in a UBER and my leg was sitting against the door of the car. After I left, I took paint and plastic with me on my leg after a 15 min ride.

      Ooof.

      Silver lining, maybe the fee was cheaper than the healthcare after a bad bite. Did you pay something?

        No, I actually didn’t notice until after I already left. I was wondering why my leg has melted plastic on it. Lol

      Yep, DEET will melt synthetic stuff: Let it dry on your skin before you do anything and for clothes/gear use permethrin
