Bearing in mind the wee blighters will be sitting at the airport waiting specifically for me. Think they can smell my blood, the closer the plane gets.... How bad are they, usually, in October??

I think i'm just going to bring my usual Extra Strength Jungle Formula. Hate paying so much for it, but it's the only thing that really does the trick. I don't think i'm willing to take the risk.

We have used Buzzoff extra strength from superdrug this time and as worked well for us,it as 50% deet which is what you need to help keep them away :-)

Will have a look at that Stevie. The Jungle formula is the same, so will see which one's cheapest. Thank you!

Jacks, The little so & so's bit me in Sept, even though I had Avon Skin so soft & Jungle Formula on, there still healing now. I was told taking brewers yeast tablets would help stop them. Have a fab time, jealous not.....

Skin So Soft has never worked for me - got bitten alive. Only thng so far that has worked is the Jungle Formula Extra Strength.

Well keep to what you know best jacks..........as I have said before I take 1 Loratadine daily throughout the year and Mozzies keep away from me..............I wonder at times if it could be the wine that attracts them???

I take Ceterizine all year round, for an allergy. My bites aren't as bad as they would be, if I didn't take them - they clear up quicker. I don't really drink wine when I'm in Roda.
