We've been using Jungle Formula Maximum Plus Gel this season. In conjunction with the incense burner going all the time, we hardly got bitten.

For those of you already bitten, antihistamine tablets work well for me to stop the itching. I buy the cheapie ones from local supermarket as they work just as well as the branded ones, and never go camping without a pack in my luggage. Start to take them the minute you realise you have been bitten and they will keep the swelling/itching at bay.

I used to be an Avon skin so soft sort of girl and it was fab however I'm now converted to Smidge. Great for keeping midges and clegs away.
I think clegs are the ones giving big bites up here just now. I've been scratching my bug bites from a couple of weeks ago when I didn't have any insect protection on.
