Thanks.  In Arizona I never needed insect repellant.  There weren't enough bugs to make it worthwhile to me.  I believe that here in Tennessee bug repellant is a necessity.

I'd be happy to trade places with anyone tired of the climate in Arizona.  The last summer I was there I had 4 mosquito bites.  Last night I ended up with 6.  Someone here asked me to donate blood last summer.  I said I can't because the bugs took too much.

Clearly you haven't been exposed to the lathering of repellent rituals so prevalent in our climate?

I believe the favored chemical this season is  3M UltraThon (made of something like 90% DEET).

Of course, for people who disdain the sensual, or rarely have another human being available for the slathering, we have the ThermaCell Incect Repellent:
