| I find that using lemon cologne ( I prefer the make Duru ) keeps most insects at bay - but you have to spray it on regularly.
Also the vape plug ins are great - I prefer the geranium ones . |

| The old goldminers in New Zealand blathered themselves with kerosene [paraffin in UK] to keep off the sandflies and mossies - 100% effective - as long as you don't drop your 'roach'! |
