Prevention of West Nile?
 
Anyone out there have any suggestions on what to do to ward off mosquitoes while hunting, without affecting deer movement?

Just thinking of reducing chance of West Nile and others...

I heard that taking Vitamin B1 would reduce your " attractivness" to the little buggers....

A bug suit and a thermocell should greatly reduce the number of mosquito bites you recieve

you mean they have mosquitos in canada? :D they' re big enough down here to carry you away.. West nile has really hit hard down here..like said above try the suits and the non-scented spray.. They arent that bad after October.. cold usually kills them off
