Had a holiday in Scotland Fairygirl and the lady that ran the campsite always kept that handy for us poor sassenachs who had no idea what to do .
Ah 'the midge' - it's our secret weapon Mynx .....
I was a bridesmaid with a face like a pizza having been midged the night before.
Take Brewers Yeast tablets daily. Allegedly the smell puts off bitey things. Sorry I have no empirical evidence of this.
Brewers yeast and jbl and something from Avon - is it that stuff with the great smell of brute. If so, I'd rather get bit.
Brewers yeast doesn't work. I've tried it. The Avon stuff is actually quite a pleasant smell and stops you looking like a pizza! Needs must when the critters drive B3.
The Avon stuff really works. I was a real Midge Magnet and swelled up horribly with pustules lasting for days until I got Avon's Skin so Soft Lotion.
Thanks Dove. Splash it all over 'Enry,....I mean B3
Nobody ding dongs at my door so I'll see if I can get it online
Ordered some on Amazon. Maybe I can go down the end of the garden after midday now
