RE: west nile virus/insect spray?
kimndavid- to tell you the truth I rely mostly on my clothes and headnet to keep mosquitoes away I use the permethrin mainly for ticks, but it says right on the can that it is for ticks and mosquitoes and Iv' e never really had a problem. You are right about the deet, though it does tend to smell some. Thats why I use the Permethrin. You can use the deet on your skin and the permethrin on your clothes to be well protected.
