Mild eye irritant. N,N'-diethyl-m-toluamide is a corneal irritant. |
| Chronic Effects |
Chronic dermal effects, particularly in children, have been reported for excessive dermal applications of highly concentrated levels of N,N'-diethyl-m-toluamide. These effects include toxic encephalopathy (inflammation of the cranial tissue). N,N'-diethyl-m-toluamide can be absorbed through the skin, and due to the potential toxicity of N,N'-diethyl-m-toluamide, frequent total-body applications of Bloc Bite, especially on children, for days or weeks should be avoided. |
