San Stefanos news and views / Re: Mosquitos
« on: July 12, 2009, 05:23:36 PM »
Hello all
Just returned from a blissful week in San Stefanos and only one mosquito bite ( through my own carelessness.) First night used jungle formula apart from left lower leg on which I applied Avon Skin so Soft (Woodland Fresh). The dry oil spray is absorbed really quickly and I did reapply once round the ankles during our evenings out. Perhaps not a fragrance I would otherwise use but I tend to avoid perfumes there anyway as they seem to attract insects. Plenty of mozzies about and my husband and one son got a dozen between them - usually they get none at all if I am there. Also noticed quite a lot of people with bites. I know plenty of products have been talked about and that people will quite reasonably stick with what they trust but this little experimental trial on one person may be of some use if anyone`s thinking of this particular spray.
