Went down the lottie this afternoon and have come home with about 20
bites. The buggers even got through a long sleeved top! Anyway, I
recall a discussion last year when an Avon product was mentioned as the
best way to keep the little sods at bay. Could someone please remind me
what it was?
TIA

Skin So Soft. In this country they're not allowed to advertise it as an
insect repellent, as far as I'm aware. But it is. It works, IME.

Thanks Sacha.

Apparently Skin-so- Soft is used by equestrians to save their steeds
getting troubled !

I like to use "Jungle formula" sachets -they are like wet wipes. The
sachets are easy to carry around and easy to apply. Very effective against
midges.
