Holy crap!!! What do you guys do to keep these monsters off you?
A bottle of vanilla extract. Pour a little in your hand and rub on exposed skin.
Thanks for the sweet tip.... They are bad in my area..Quote:

They are so bad here that yesterday I had spray bottle and head net and I still left the fish biting! Watching it rain and licking my wounds today.
Vanilla extract & water thinned 50/50 works pretty good in a spray bottle. I'm not sure if a Thermacell would be very effective against Buffalo Gnats or not.
It's going to be a bad year for them, I use vanilla extract myself.
No sir, thermocell does not work, not even a little. By the way, you don't need real vanilla extract, way too expensive. The intimation works just fine, I keep a bottle in my boat at all times. Those knats tear me up!!!Quote:

I had an idea, I have the vanilla extract and was looking at a way of dispensing it without dumping it in my hand and spreading it. Then it came to me that if I put it in an empty Slab Sauce Bottle I could spray it on my exposed areas then rub it in without much waste. This virus needs to get over soon I just might think myself into the poor house with all these bright ideas I keep cumming up with.
