One of my hunting partners scouted our elk unit this past weekend and placed a healthy mineral lick. Any time we were out of my truck we were in a perpetual cloud of mosquitoes. Of course we weren' t smart enough to have taken a bug spray with us.

Vowing to correct this for the future I checked on another message board.

There are several products available but the one getting the most votes and most highly recommended iS OFF ' DEEP WOODS. My local super market had it in two ways. The standard 6 oz spray can and a smaller 1 oz non pressureized spray that will tuck easily in any daybag. And it is listed as good for 10 hours.

Each was $5.49 but we had a $1.00 off store coupon . . . so I purchased both. I don' t ever want to walk in another cloud of mosquitoes.
