Hudson27....I use Sawyer's insect repellent. It is primarily Permethrin. This stuff is great...you need to treat your clothes that you are going to wear with it and let it dry over night. It is what the military uses and I have used for mushroom and turkey hunting.....best thing i've found!!!!!
Night temps in perry will slow down growth but I bet there will be some up by then! Ill be in P'ville through the weekend fishing and picking!!!!
