Default RE: BUGS are eating me alive while hunting... I need help.

I have been bowhunting out of a treestand for the last few weeks and the mosquitoes were ornry here too. You don't move around in a treestand....so even though the weather is mild, I have worn light weight-longsleeved camos with light weight longjohns underneath...along with a pair of light weight como cloth gloves. The only place the mosquitoes bothered me was around my head and neck. They can't bite through the long-sleeved clothes. Being a little too warm is a lot better than being eaten by the bugs! I just went to Gander Mountain and purchased a $2 hat that has a mosquito net that covers your head and neck area attached to it. It works great!...I sit for hours with no swatting.
