I am SO GLAD that my kids were out of reach when I used this, as I would have put it on to them before I had the reaction. Tried the local Thai midge cream which you tend to sweat off after a short time, leaving you at the mercy off their relentless onslaught.

After about 15 min I became very dizzy and was panicking because I had three young children to look after and my husband wasn't joining us until the next day. Me había comentado ya que tuviera cuidado con los midges, que son unos mini mosquitos que atacan en grupo. So if I am here trying to tell you where to spend you money, what can I say to help you decide what to use?Completing an Alpine crossing is a test of mind, body and spirit, but along with this come the rewards that only a long-distance tour can provide, a special feeling of achievement and memories that will last forever. Tornato in Italia l'ho sfruttato per le zanzare tigre e non e devo dire che non mi è mai capitato di esser stato punto anche quando ce n'erano parecchie in giro.

This is active travel when you want to treat yourself, with ample opportunity for great food and wine! She got great relief from using the handy roll-on pen, and now always keeps it with her so thanks guys. I was an Avon Skin so Soft regular until someone told me they’d changed the recipe and it doesn’t work now. We got our hands on some products from Smidge, Pyramid TREK, Lifesystems as well as some Avon Skin So Soft we had knocking about the house. So for the purposes of testing, unfortunately I am the perfect test case for these little critters and the repellents we have bought along with us.

I met the Pyramid guys at an outdoor trade show where we explained that we were off to Scotland and wanted to test some different stuff against midges. Pyramid Trek Midge and Tick Repellent is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, walkers, gardeners or anyone spending extended periods outdoors during midge season (usually May to September here in the UK). We don’t just sit about, so we will be out and about and don’t want our activities to be ruined by midge attacks.

Unfortunately i forgot to reapply as they werent bothering me and had a few bites in the morning, bur that was obviously my fault. They haven’t been bitten at all, not once – It works for them and not for me, so it is unfair at this stage to say that PRODUCT X is RUBBISH. So it looks at though the Trek Midge is better value, especially when you factor in that on an normal human, it should last for up to 12 hours. This is extended using weather forecast data, giving you a big picture view of midge levels across Scotland throughout the season. Of these, the Highland midge, Culicoides impunctatus, is the most bloodthirsty, and the species responsible for most of the bites of people.

You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The best way to avoid being bitten by midges is to cover up your bare skin at times when they are most likely to be around. I received my parcel a lot sooner than I thought and as I said couldn't be more pleased with the items. They also sell a midge-proof hair net, but we didn’t see enough midges to require using it – sexy though it is.
