Do spray outside - we sprayed inside the tent and damaged the waterproofing. And please keep it away from honey bees and bumble bees - they've got enough problems with insecticides as it is.

Went to Wales last week and were surrounded by something.
Mom always called them Gnats, and these are bigger than what was at camp.
The camp ones reminded me of beer flies.Whats the difference?

Highland Strength anti-mosquitois the only one that works for me I work outside near Kielder and the midges can be unbearable. Nothing will stop them 100% but the Highland Strength makes the difference of being able to work outside or packing up and calling it a day.

Tried Avon Skin So Soft and it does not work. Some of the DEET products work Ok but they feel awful on your skin and anything that melts plastic can't be good for you.
Highland Strength available at HERE

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

I console myself with the thought that if I drink plenty of wine at least the little s*ds will have a hangover if they bite me
