Best non-Deet Mosquitoe repellent?

<< < (2/4) > >>

autologus:
Try tea tree oil.

Pat B:
I don't think you should put Tea Tree Oil directly on your shin. I used to put some on the brim of my caps to keep gnats out of my face.

Chief RID:
I treat my clothes around contact areas and wear those clothes when in the woods. Also use on boots. It lasts a good two weeks. I use deet on exposed areas but just a dot here and there to keep the critters from bugging me around ears and eyes. Never above eyes. Thermocell if sitting.

Adam:
I'll add another vote for Thermacell.  Rarely am I blown away by a product, but that thing is amazing.

chamookman:
Before Thermo-Cells, I used a Shannen Bug Tamer Suit Turkey Hunting. Works as advertised - Bob.
