Moderately extreme...
Early planning for a trip to Mexico next March. I believe 'Mozzies' can be an issue. Zika virus too.. though since it's a relatively mild infection and the chances of me being pregnant are fairly minimal....
Thing is, I sometimes use Industrial Strength DEET based repellents here in the UK when I'm catching rays and I know that assorted Horse Flies and Black Flies are about.. but these products do tend to leave you feeling like you've had a coat of very smelly Yacht Varnish applied.. and they ruin fabrics, paintwork and furniture... You can't really do much else but sunbathe unless you wash all the DEET off again.
So.. I'm looking for something which will repel Mozzies in the less intense times.. When you actually have clothes on and are out for dinner in the evening.. or when on an excursion etc. Something which works but won't dissolve my shoes or weld me to a cheap restaurant seat..
Anything?
