Default Bug Gloves, What do you use?

I need some type of Bug Gloves! I have tried a couple of different lightweight glove to use while early season Bowhunting. Those *&#^%$%*&(^%@&* Mosquitios still eat my hands alive. I have a Bug Tamer suit, this suit ROCKS! Do you think a leather glove would work. I wonder if those little pests can bite thru leather? What do you use if any? Or...

I don' t know what to use, but don' t use Rhinoskin gloves or anything else . It' s worthless for misquitoes !!!!!!!!! I' m getting a bugtamer suit and will wait to see the suggestions for gloves.

My Wal-mart scent-blocker plus gloves work great on mosquitoes. They aren' t too heavy for early season. They are a little light for the real cold. I would be wary of the latex gloves. They often have a definite unnatural scent and they will make your hands sweat like crazy, and we all know what sweating does for hunting whitetails.

yeah they will make um sweat but when the no see ums are bad its a last resort . last year I started useing a thermocell and it works very well but you asked about gloves and that was the only thing that has worked for me in the past . sometimes the skeeters are so thick down here you dont even want to go outside , that was before I got a thermocell

I like the gloves that are offered by Shannon' s Bug Tamer...Only about $15.00
They are made of the same material as the jacket and pants. They work.
