Mosquito juice

Not sure there is a final solution.

Interesting note about plant juice from ~the beach.  My buddies and I used to sqeeze the juice from a beach, watery plant that looked like Aloe, but wasn’t, and convinced ourselves that it worked.  Another time, we heard about Oil of Wintergreen.  A small bottle from the local pharmacy was carried in our pockets, but only for a while. A little drop or two goes a long way…BUT woe be unto the person whose perspiration transported it to the eyes, or to a “sensitive area” by a casual scratch.  Excruciating.  Lefty Kreh said of the mosquitoes here in the Keys: They are so big they can stand flatfooted and romance a turkey.  Here we call the Mosquito Control folks nearly daily in the summer and complain like crazy.  They semi-regularly send out a truck and spray…based on an esoteric count.  Beware of deets.  Beware of bare skin.  Beware of dusk and early mornings before the sun warms things up.

Try a little 100% deet behind the ears.

I almost never wear bug juice, but when I do I’m serious about it.

The smokes and Deet will work for me,although I go smaller on the ring size than Cameron but this may not be suitable for the little ones.
