I use this product for Mosquitoes and biting Flies.
REPEL Sportsmen MAX
40 % DEET


This works for me...I spray on hands and wipe onto arms, hands and face. Safe for direct skin contact.

Goose, I've slept outside, under a canopy, for four nights at the beginning of this month. Mosquitoes ahoy.
No problems.

Last night, I slept under the stars, on an island in the Susquehanna. (Doing the same tonight) Mosquitoes ahoy. No problems.

I know everyone's makeup is different, but Repel Sportsmen Max works for me on Mosquitoes and biting Flies. I hope this helps you Goose, it's a been a lifesaver for me.
I also use Thermal Cell. I place under Wife's chair while sitting around campfire.

You see MosquitoBumps!  Hern is a real man and he aint cheap like you.

As far as Brekie goes, take your smokey a$$ up to the November hunt and I will treat.  Who knows, maybe I will even guide you and MosquitoBumps for one night of coyote hunting.  Just don't miss!! ::) ::) ::) ::)

 :D :D Mosquito's are not as elusive as a Fisher  :D :D He can identify with them  ;) he's always buzzing around being a nuisance  :P looking to get swatted  :o :o :o :o "Brekie" in Bellefonte I can hardly wait!!! ;D ;D ;D What firearms should we bring for Safari with "Tim"  ??? ??? I've pretty much ruled out a shotgun  :P as you never get that close to anything with teeth  ::) ::) I'm thinking a minimum of 1/2 a mile should do it for sighting in  :( :( ..................I'm remembering last years Safari where you saw eyes and it turned out to be the cell tower at Renovo 2 miles away.... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D............................................. 8)
