May as well smear yourself with marmite.

Is that wise?

You could end up looking like a golliwog or a minstrel and we all know where that will lead. :eek:

Is that possible at your place? At our last place we had one of those screened gazebos, and at one time a net that you hang over a garden umbrella. We bought it in Jysk, very cheap.

I looked up the patches they are vitamin B1

In more ways than one! To be honest I never get bitten at home, it's only when we're out, so I guess maybe I should stay home.

Boris the blister is doing quite well, does look infected but the infection is not spreading, and there is no redness or swelling.... So the salt water definitely seemed to help.
