Ha! I couldn't even imagine how unsettling it's got to be to walk into a field or woods with out the gear to fend off these skeeters. I was out last night and with this rain it got worse. Lucky for the wind.

Re: Holy Mosquitoes!
It isn't fun! Season hasn't started for me yet (October 1st) But like a lot of you have said. They are BAD this year.
I can't walk outside without getting bit by 5-6 of them.
My legs and arms are covered. Its terrible. I'll have my thermacell Oct 1st and what ever else will help keep them away. Hopefully we have a very very cold winter that will kill a lot of these pests off.

Re: Holy Mosquitoes!
With yesterday's high winds I didn't have to turn on my thermacell. I swatted a few walking out in the dark but not too bad. They'll be back in full force with light winds I bet.

Spray is sold out at all the stores around here as well. Haven’t checked but betting Thermacell refills are too. Glad I was well stocked up with both.

Anyone ever use RynoSkin to drive off mosquitos for early season hunts?
