I have had a hard time with mozzies over the years. I was close to being in hospital in Turkey one year, and it made me think about giving up foreign hols. What works for me now is Mosquito Milk which is a roll-on with a pleasant slight fresh lemon smell, you can get it here;

I have been to San Stef 3 years running and got 3 bites, 2 on occasions I forgot to put it on. I know it's different strokes for different folks when it comes to mozzies, but it is well worth a try.

Thanks for that Jim4Ton and welcome to the forums. Where do you stay in San Stefanos?

[Jim4Ton]

Next year will be our 4th at Thomas Bay 

[Jules]

So you are a true San Stef addict like most of us on here. 

[tonyco1]

I would agree Jules!, coincidently, we have stayed 5 times at the Thomas Bay, once at the Athina, and the other 30 times over 27 years was in various Apartments, too many to name them all!

Just found this on an E-Mail. Not a prevention.... But if the worst happens!



Mosquito bites: Before reaching for the insect bite cream, try rubbing the affected area with the inside of a banana skin. Many people find it amazingly successful at reducing swelling and irritation.

Best rub that banana skin on K N O'Brown - gets rid of irritation you said!! LOL

Don't think it'd work on unsightly swellings like that though ! LOL

[tonyco1]

Bananas are the natural cure - 1 put in the right place - works wonders!! LOL

Straight or bendy!!!!  Will either do the trick
