i'm convinced that there is no 100% way to keep midges and clegs . dependant on what i'm doing i usully just suffer them . can't use chemical stuff if i'm fishing or climbing ,it can damage the equipment . but suffer in silence ,never . many folk come up to me and ask about the song" goawayyounastylittleblighters" (cleaned up version ) i was singing at the top of my voice. ouch!
