Tip to ward of mozzies

If your`e a bit of a mozzie magnet like myself,I found a great product from A**n(ding dong)called Skin So Soft is brilliant,I used it when trout fishing in the Lake District and it did the job brilliantly,also works as an aftersun moisturizer.Not very expensive either....

4 euros doesnt sound a lot for protection. Eating and drinking anything with yeast in it (Marmite, live beer) is a long standing way to ward the little blighters off but in the house I find it necessary to keep at least 2 infusers on the go at this time of year and outside burn the anti-mossie coils such as Moskil or the equivalent which has recently become available here in Spain. If away from home the rub on stick in the yellow and red plastic pack seems to work fairly well but dont miss out the sensitive spots, cos they will bite where you miss.

I used to use that in my bath all the time in the UK but still got bit. Maybe it doesn't work so well once diluted

Difficult one that jdr. Thought bees could only sting once as the sting remained in your flesh and they died. Maybe it was 2 bees you trod on (mass murderer you !) or the first one was only a little prick and then he got you better second time around.

The female mozzie bites not the male,people with high colesteral are like a five star restaraunt for them.Ok dont eat bannanas,do eat garlic fresh is best.Do wash off all perfume/aftershave at night before bed.Have a mozzie type net curtain around your bed.Here is the real deal dont scratch,i know its easier said than done but dont.If you have a bite something you should all have as an everyday item good old sudocrem??????????
