Mozzies
« on: September 06, 2019, 06:24:49 PM »
Is it just us or are the mozzies bad this year?.
We always expect a few but weds night and Thursday on the beach
Christine's got 30+ mainly lower leg and feet and I've got 20 back, top of legs.
Mine don't bother me but Chris has an immune deficiency  and they're driving her mad.
Haven't had anymore last night or today.

Barry and Christine.

We were there end of June and I thought they were better this year but sounds like things have changed. Have you been wearing repellant? This time if year it dies her dark earlier so you need to remember to reapply it also e very 4 hours.  Sorry if stating the obvious.

We have never had bites for about 10 years after using Incognito.  Just make sure you don't use perfume etc .

I used that once and nobody recognised me!!! - Or maybe they did and just ignored me!!!

I think less mozzies , this year but it is those little black flies that catch you during the day and they can nip quite badly. So mozzie spray during the day is a good option.

Been here a week and pleased to say we've not had another nibble.
Must have just picked a bad spot on the beach the first day.
