LOL... be sure to clue the wife in on this....
Go fishing, come home smelling like a french #*&@^ could be disaster.
That would make me wonder what they made the stuff out of. May be safer to use Off.
Lol....if it's safe enough for a woman's skin,I'm sure our old "leather hides" will be fine:D
took some to Stephensville today........but no knats....
I agree and concur with VS Amber Romance usage so far. :D
My skeeter control plan is the Thermacell unit, been bowhunting the early season with this since it first came out, no contest, works extremely well, better than anything else out there. I've held back skeeters in some most awful situations after the hurricanes.

At Saline/Larto a couple of weeks ago and the gnats ate me alive, I have some sort of allergic reaction to the bites as my ears swell up as big as my hands and had welts on my neck/forehead for a week, itches like crazy too.......
HELP,HELP,HELP...............
BTW: my wifey gets those Vicotria Secrets catalogs all the time.....

simple as that David, get u some, spray it on, go fish. google "knats amber romance" for more info, lots of testimonials.
always had the belief that if you out on the water and smell good like that then the bees and wasp will also find you. The sweet smell will bring the unwanted guest if not careful and then they don't want to leave.
Just get your self one of the Thermacell things? I got one a couple years ago for night fishing and you know how bad it can get at night with out enough wind to hold them down. Well it works and had them bugs just out of you face enough, but every time I turned around to see behind me and near the side of the boat I was met with a huge number of pest. Never one coming into my little area unless I looked behind me where the Thermacell was not protecting. Don't have to sell like that and you can't smell this stuff at all. Each little pad last 4 hours and the little bottle of fuel last two pads, but it works was the best part.
o-k, I'll sure try it...........Quote:

Kinda "gun shy" when it comes to these things.....

Ole Evinrude,
I tried OFF Sat. and I got ate up! I had bites the size of a nickel.I'm telling you,buy you a bottle of Victoria's Secret "Amber Romance"(mist).
Thermacells do work,but are most effective if staying in same location.Once you start trolling around,you get out of your "protective cloud" so to speak.

LOL......any boaters following ya???
I havent tried it yet but a friend told me the other day to use dryer sheets.
The little square sheets you put in the dryer. Just wear it on your clothes somewhere to keep away skeeters.
