Hiking in a Kilt

[auld argonian]

Overhere ticks (Lyme disease) became a real problem, so I always try to stay on the paths and away from bushes when kilted.

I'm not afraid of mosquitoes...Michelle is the mosquito magnet

Bugs just don't like me...must be the red hair or all of the garlic that I eat or something...I once came back from a photo shoot in the woods and my companions were picking ticks off of themselves for hours; when I took off my shirt there were half a dozen ticks running around trying to find the way out and not a bite on me. Skeeters seem to hate me as well...that's one of the reasons that I want to get to Scotland and see if the magic works on the midgees.

Skin So Soft Is The Best Bug Repelent That I Have Ever Come Across. I Used It At Camp Lejeune N.c. And At Fort Dix N.j. And It Did Wounders To Keep The Ticks Off

If you're looking for something without the nasty chemicals, Repel Lemon Eucalyptus has been keeping the bugs away for me.

Sage oil is a good insect repellant... fortunately I live in the desert, where sage grows abundantly... I just grab a handfull of leaves, crush/rub them between my palms, and rub them over any exposed skin... it doesn't get much more "organic" than that.
