Oh I have to cover up in Summer & use insect repellent. Example - I walked
out into the garden the other day, I had sandals on. I hadn't put any
repellent upon my feet. Literally within seconds I was bitten on the foot.
My son has recently returned from two weeks in the Sinai desert. His arms &
hands were *covered* in red bumps. His hands were so bad they looked like
the gnarled & twisted hands you get with arthritis! And that's even with him
using copious amounts of DEET & wearing long sleeved shirts.
