Got me pretty bad while I was hunting yesterday... I guess it's because we had a huge rain last week. I'm so incredibly itchy, it is like this all over my body
I have a problem with deer ticks. One of my spots is infested with them and I've been bitten many times. A friend suggested that I use "permethrin". You don't put it on you, you put it on your hunting clothes, let it dry, then wear. I've not had one tick on me since I started using it. I got "Repel mosquito stop" so I guess it will work for mosquito's too!
Permethrin is good stuff, even lasts for a few washes. I was not a believer of thermacell until I bought one. They work awesome. Wish the cartridges and butane lasted longer though.
Had some on me last night. They must have come back for a couple days because it got warm out. Didn't have to use my thermacell this year though which is amazing.
Did you hunt without a shirt on?? I have never had them that bad while hunting, usually around my hands and neck....and i hunt some pretty mosquito invested places on the coast. But for suggestions....Thermocell all the way!
