I really hate those little fuckers. Got about 4-5 bites today. Death to them all! Thankfully, they usually only last a month or so. I would go crazy if I lived in a place where they were present all the time.

Get to climb with a beautiful lady, during the week I might add and still find something to bitch about. I really do feel sorry for you Wes, really I do.

No, I am right there with him. I hate those little sumbitches ALMOST as much as I hate hornets and wasps. Luckily, Sawyer's Broad Spectrum actually repels them.

9 years in & see the way he talks about his wife? That's love. That's a beautiful thing.

GOOSH I HATE THOSE LIL FUCHERS AS WELL TOO. Harry and I went to military yesterday and I have never seen as many deerflies and mosq. in one area. It was not even remotely fun to climb because I was smakcing myself about every 10 seconds because I couldn't stand it. Almost gave myself a black eye! Anyways what is the best bug repellent possible to use? Longlegs, you suggested something by Avon. Where might you purchase this?

They're all on sale right now. And if you enter LSSHIP as a coupon code, you get free shipping for any purchases over $30.

Stewy, use lye soap to help the itching subside... Or you can always use one of those gay citronella armbands (they work quite well)... or you can take JJ's advice and not shower for days... don't eat bananas either (heard it on NPR)... eat lots of garlic... take vitamin B-1.
But then again, I got 23 bug bites from this weekend alone so don't take any advice from me!

I never get bit till my hands are busy. The litte #$%# know when to time their attacks.
