The Summer Curse
It's a beautiful day. Late in the day a warm light breeze that fades away to nothing until the water is glassed out.
The sunset is breathtaking and then, when the sun dips below the horizon, the curse arrives.
Mozzies. Millions of 'em.
I haven't found a repellent that works yet and I've tried a lot of them.
Has anyone found the magic deterrent yet?

Re: The Summer Curse
I dunno, maybe i just have yucky tasting blood but for me personally mozzies have never been a massive deal. A bit of rid, aeroguard or bushmans when they are hungry usually does the trick
Its more flies that **** me off this time of year tbh

Re: The Summer Curse

Flies are annoying can't do much about them I don't think

When working in the paddocks we apply diesel fuel liberally to our arms and legs, means a shower when you finish the job, but it works.

Do not do this. Diesel has many carcinagenic properties that are easily absorbed into your skin.Al03 wrote:When working in the paddocks we apply diesel fuel liberally to our arms and legs, means a shower when you finish the job, but it works.
