Bug spray recommendations please

The best skin stuff to deter anything bitey!

Anything that if need be I can buy from Amazon for fast UK delivery as I keep forgetting to buy any.

I've used DEET impregnated bands that go on wrists & ankles.
Very effective (I was in Africa), non-smelly, available from Amazon - I think they're called something like Mozzie-off.
Make sure you get the DEET ones

I've used this for years.

2 x Avon Skin So Soft Dry Oil Body Spray Insect Mosquito Mosi Repellant Properties https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07T8P5HXV/ref=cmswwrcppapiglttfabcYXV1EQ42PPXQT9BT1BDF

Thanks, tempted to use both 😂

I’ve used the Avon skin so soft stuff in the jungle - absolutely useless! I really wanted it & natural Mosi-guard stuff to work as I don’t like chemicals. Deet really is the only think that works. You can’t use it to a strength of more than 30% on kids. I usually use Ben’s Insect Repellant for Families which you can buy off Amazon.

The Avon didn't work for me.
Has to have high percentage of DEET in.

Avon doesn't work for me either. I use Jungle Formula spray from Boots.

Both Boots and Superdrug do their own version of DEET sprays. Superdrug is a black and orange tin. Lots cheaper than Jungle. The Boots is in a green tin iirc.

Jungle formula - aerosol one from Amazon - high amount of DEET just either spray in outside or in a room you don't want to go in for a bit as it is strong!

This is to put on me, the bastards love me and I react badly!

I got something called smidge the midge on Amazon! Seems to work and smells ok!

I just got bitten to s*#t in Greece a couple of weeks ago.
Used Avon in Santorini last year and had absolutely nothing. This year I had a 2 inch yellow blister appear overnight after being bitten I was using Boots level 3 repellent plus mosquito bracelets 😳
