There's some pretty good natural bug repellant on the market now. No
deet, etc. The disadvantage is that it doesn't last long. Frequent
applications necessary. Most of them are citrus-based, so as a rule
you smell better and don't feel as creepy as you feel with heavy
concentrations of deet. I'm out a lot at sunrise, when the mosquitoes
are ravenous, so I sometimes resort to the gentler deet products,
applying sparingly with reapplications as necessary.
