I can vouch for the Avon stuff - I use it all the time when I am fishing. Good afternoon Don.

Good morning Don & ecignut

I don't think you would say that if you were up on Rannoch Moor on a still warm night in July

Or on Donside on a humid August evening.

“Skin So Soft?!?” I’m not trying to make my flesh extra comfy for the little buggers so they can just roll over and take a nap after they tap me like a kegl!!


Between the swarms of mosquitos, the constant raining and having to walk my dog 3 times a day IN said mosquitos and rain, I’m glad I’ve got my vape to put in my mouth, otherwise it’d be a GUN.

Think a flamethrower is better for mozzies. Or a UV light source coupled to an insect electrocutor as found in every commercial kitchen.

I have been checking up on the black fly Whiskey was talking about - we used to have it in Scotland but the midge killed it off

[jerryz]

Actually I have heard that skin so soft does work. Don't take those little bastards too lightly. They carry all kinds of diseases. I rarely get bit by mosquitos. It must be all the garlic in my Italian blood.

Smart ass.....

Hey everybody, I'm back from my trip and all rested up, so I'm back  

I'm firmly convinced that mosquitos are little baby demons trying their hardest to rule the world... Flamethrower would definitely not be overkill.
