Gnats are horrible!

My last 2 trips to my favorite crappie lakes turned into misery, because of the gnats- Is there something you can spray or whatever to get rid of them. At least keep them away from your face?

I've always gone with the tested and proven military option: Permethrin spray. I use it on all my clothing (good for 1/2 doz. washings) and 90% plus DEET lotion for my ankles, neck and face. I don't get bothered much.

There is discussion in the Mississippi board about gnats and remedy's

Ya'll may not be talking about the same variety of gnats. Long way from here to Maine. Plus we have 4 or more types.

If it's the ones that attach your eyes bite and leave big knots on you they are terrible.... skin-so-soft has worked for me.....

I agree with the Permethrin. It is expensive if you get the real thing- but good stuff.

Here is a link to a net that is worn over your hat. INEXPENSIVE. :twocents

Plane ole Vanilla Extract. Go to the La. board and read the post on Gnats.

Uhhhh did you catch any crappie??

Tea Tree oil is what they use in GA. At least Papasage and crew. Stinky stuff but works.
