Insect repellents

[Steve Burke]

Got to say I tend to react VERY badly with Mozzy bites!! Even been hospitalized in the past due to them!

 

I used one of the little electronic things a couple of years ago and got just the one bite in around 3 weeks of fishing at a time when everyone got bitten. So in my opinion WELL worth trying! Sold a lot be the HK sellers on Ebay.

 

Didn't work for me I'm afraid. The importers said that each species (and there are lots in the UK apparently) react to different frequencies. Mind you there was also a setting that mimicked dragonflies and all species avoided apparently - also useless for me. I wonder why the web site disappeared shortly after?

 

They obviously work in some circumstances though as Chris has found, so may be worth a try.

 

It's a long shot but I'll try to find it. If I do the first to ask gets it FOC.
