Carbamate is an insecticide. In what insect repellent products is it combined with DEET?

And in terms of cholinesterase inhibition, there was a 2009 paper that said it was. Digging into it, it was when applied in vitro at a concentration of 20uM, which you’d need to drink hundreds of milliliters to achieve.

Which apparently is a thing that is done, going by the bizarre link in geomark's post above.
