Boy do they look yucky, something everyone wants flying around them. You must be like me, I'm a bug magnet, anywhere, anytime, any place. People liked to sit next to me at my son's baseball games because the bugs left them alone, because they were after me (guess I'm pretty sweet too). I've heard that the Off in the container you put around your waist works, but I don't have any personal experience with it. Good luck. My neighbor used to wear a hat with some type of screening, but I think that would be hot to wear. Hope you find something that works.
