Well here we are in the warm weather and time to spend it outdoors naked. One of the things I enjoy is hiking nude (where allowable) and always I seem to get eaten by the nasty flying critters. So are there any suggestions or favorite sprays or creams that you folks use to ward off these nasty little pest ?? I was thinking Skin So Soft but I don't want to smell that pretty while hiking I just might attract a furry friend following me. Thanks for your advise.

    I have been carrying   BOUNCE  in my pocket for years, and mosquitos seem to stay away from the scent.

    DEET !
    Takes very little, mostly in hair and on feet. ( foot odor seems to attract bugs no matter how slight )

    When We visted the amzon, the guides there suggested using urine.  He said it works better than most things, but I think from my experience it might depend on what you eat.

    I alwasy use a spray called jungle spray.  It contains deet and works really well, especially against sand flies, which many of the others dont.

    Deep Woods Off is my favorite summertime (springtime) fragrance.  Even with that, I do occasionally get nibbled on.  One of these days I will remember to spray before going outside to do any gardening.
