The thermacell is the best thing I've tried for skeeters, it's not so good on the gnats

Have you found anything that works on the gnats too? I can't stand it when they swarm my head. It makes me crazy...

I use the Repel Cream in the little squeeze bottle. Keep in in my pack with the Thermocell.
Put the Repel on way before your ready to go out so it dries completely on your face. If you go to soon it tends to make you sweat when warm outside. Here is the little spray bottle. 100% Deet. REPEL SPRAY

thermacell is simply amazing on mosquitos and gnats.

last year while turkey hunting in alabama, dad was getting eaten alive. he noticed i wasnt swatting any, and asked was i not getting bi. i made the mistake of showin him my thermacell while laughing. he got up, walked over to me, took the thermacell wen back and set down, and sat it on his shoulder where they kept biting him. i was hilarious at first until the bugs moved back in on me.[:@]

i have honestly NEVER been bit by a mosquito while the thermacell was on for atleast 10 minutes or so.
