Maybe your the guy that motivated me to buy one. I was fishing the cape side last Tuesday and this dude(maybe you) made fun of himself for wearing it. I hit EMS right after work to buy one. I just see myself swallowing some skeeters and can't handle the thought of it. |

Pray for some wind. Justa little wind knocks the skeeter problem down quickly. Unfortunately , there is often not a breath of wind on the worst hot humid nights.
I forgot to mention I have an LLbean hat that has a netthat hangs down to your kneck. It has a funny sort fo wire in it that gives it the hat shape when open but alolows it to be twisted and crunched down to a very small size that fits in you jacket pocket.
I used to be able to buy a Cutters brand repellant that you applied like a stick deodorant. It was nice because you could do you face without getting it in your mouth and on your lips. Haven't seen it in a while but I bet somebody knows where to buy it. Its much better than the airosol spray IMO.

One morning about 2 weeks ago the little bugs were so bad the quahoggers were complaining about them and those guys don't usually bitch too much. If you listed to Channel 78 in Narr Bay they are on all the time.

You guys actually spray the bug spray on your face?
I did that ONCE and then started spraying it on one hand and applying it like sun-tan lotion. That way you don't end up inhaling the crap and gagging.
I know one bug repellent that makes moist towlettes. They come in handy for applying where you want and it allows you to attach it to the back of you hat for a little added protection as well.

ONE product,,,,3 words~~~
Skin So Soft by AVON, gents!
worked for 13yrs as an ironworker ALL over Lee and Collier Counties, FL. the no-seeums down there are the state bird and i've been into swarms that would carry off an adult moose!!!
besides making one invisible, it is GOOD for your skin, the environment, and there are no worries around the facial orafices. it is uncomfortable should it sweat into the eyes, but i just wipe it out; then re-apply. easy enuff to apply by spraying it on me mitts and rubbin' it into the exposed skin surfaces and around my E, E, N,& Mouth.
sorry, but there is no numbing pseudo-caine buzz associated with this stuff. only place i've found lge quantities of it are at Kay's. The Edge may have some, or was it Red Top?? AVON's website will work also, i'm sure.
i won't go to the surf without it, works like a CHAMP everytime!!!

I got some at the Christmas Tree shoppes. I put it on my face and got some sort of reaction where my face and the edge of my lips started burning. That motivated me to get that head buff thing that Luds is showing, to cut down on the need to put chemicals around the face.
Sorry Luds, wasn't me Tuesday. |
