Re: Deet
I use an aerosol Deet for my clothes. I use 99% deet for my skin when the
skeeters are too tough for the aerosol kind. I have found that the pump
spray is very wasteful and actually winds up weighing more than the aerosol
kind. I found that a mist of 20-30% deet on clothes does the trick most of
the time and avoids some of the skin contact associated with 100% bug
juice.
