Volks,

After a fair amount of time on the road one of the most significant
challenges has been dealing with Insidious Insects & Bothersome Bugs.

I have used a bunch of different

Like many, I have found Deet (up to 100%) and a hard to find product
called
"Buhach" to be pretty good for some encounters.

But a recent invasion of No-See-Ums in Florida got me thinking about
what
others have found effective.

What approach do you use to deal with Mosquitoes, Knats, No-See-Ums,
Black Flies, those nasty little biting lady bug looking things and other

bug problems while camping.

Sprays, lotions, coils, devices, dynamite, alcohol ... whatever.

All solutions welcome.

Be as specific as you can;

- what is it
- what does it work on
- where to get it

Tell us what has "really" worked for you and what hasn't.

I'll summarize the thread and post for all to reference.
