They work far better than cintronella. *There is a flame, but it's
tiny and hidden. *The wind does diminish the effectiveness. *I use one

Oh, and the hose end "Yard Guard" is good stuff too. *You spray your
yard, shrubbery and even the exterior surfaces of your house with this

Thanks, Jack.
Both look good.

Y'all may laugh, and I've mentioned this before, but this stuff works for
mosquitoes and no-see-ums
better than anything else I've ever used. * Safe for human use.

Rich. That's got to be better than "Off!"

Off doesn't work at all. I use Cutters at the tracks and always end up
letting "Off" users use my Cutters when the Deep woods off fails
miserably.

I know, I know, Deet, but if you are going to use it, might as well use
it in a mixture that works on bugs Either way, I am going to order a
bottle of the stuff Dick suggests, as I am not happy about all that Deet
at all.
