Avon Skin-so-Soft for mosquitoes

I read on one of the astronomy yahoo groups that this product has quite a reputation for being unofficially a good mosquito repellent. quite a few people said its effective even in swampy places like louisiana USA. some ex-soldiers said they used it when camping in the bush.

anyway i thought that many people cant be wrong so got my mum to get some. tried it on a night where i knew there would be a lot of mozzies.. just the right conditions. anyway i went out after applying skin so soft.. after about 3 minutes i knew i'd been bitten.. it turns out in 10 minutes i got 10 mozzie bites.

i was pretty disappointed !

oh well, back to RID...
