Good practical information . In "Jungle snafus and remedies" Cresson Kearny speaks very highly of using Permethrin as a component of mosquito control along with a double bottom hammock , mosquito head net and deet. He also speak of tightly woven cotton fabric of a quality that may no longer be available. Your comments on the pipe remind me of a book "Camp fires of the everglades" written in the 1860's , check it out . As usual a great video Don, your scout rifle vid's have been an inspiration.

I know there’s lemon eucalyptus, and picadirin as alternatives to deet. In Southern Africa I’d rub basil and sage on my skin but it would only stop them for a few minutes.

How to pre-embalm yourself prior to dying of heatstroke 😂. Some good info, but I definitely keep away from deet personally.
