I bring one with me especially turkey hunting, camping, hanging out at cookouts etc. I have had good experiences with them. I also bring one early bow season and IF the skeeters/bugs are bad enough to the point where its uncomfortable and Im swatting and moving more than Im sitting still, then I fire it up but only as a last resort because I can smell it, however, I always hunt the wind so unless it changes direction Im not overly concerned. If I cant sit still because of bugs then I just gave +1 to the deer anyway. I am covered from head to toe also but somehow those little buggers find my eyes and any little thing to keep me moving.
