Insect repellant

[Meles meles]

Hi all,

Any body know of a good, cheap insect repellant. Ideally I want an Insect repellant that is odourless

I seem to spend every night by badger setts etc. But one place i reguarly go to, I always come home looking like a dot to dot picture.

Thanks

I dont know if you have one near you..... but in The Pound shop down in our high street i got some insect repellant wet wipes and so far since using them i haven't been bitten.. I have now stocked up on a few packets.. well worth a Pound of anyones money..

Including a well known brand of yeast extract in one's diet is suppossedly helpful - whether the badgers can smell it though another matter.

Cant eat yeast or wheat, or drink the well known brands either
Its strange though because its only at one particular location that i get so bitten

Assuming their odour free, have you a name for this reccomended product, I can search around.
So far the only ones I found that say they are odourless actualy contain and smell of lavender.
How thats odourless, I dont know

The ones i have found and use are called 'Cotton Tree' INSECT RELLENT WIPES ( Jungle strength) They smell lemony to start with but that vanishes after few minutes.. I haven't been bitten since i started to use them nor has my neighbour I told about them who has an Allergic reaction to bites..

Drinking Tiger beer always stopped bed bugs biting me.

Jungle formula, most chemists stock it

There have been a couple of lengthy threads on insect repellents earlier.
One line of thought was that you need different repellents for different insects .... so you'll need a sample!
