in fact the fabric sheets i use are not bounce.....they are the walmart brand.
Was there a lot of mosquitoes Andrea?

My and my wife are going fishing as well this coming week, up north (in the land of black flies, mosquitoes, deer flies, horse flies...) yes all four... Forecast for all those bugs? (High:Elevated bug activity)

I think I will ask my wife for a test...
She will have fabrics sheets in her pocket and around her neck and me some DEET spray...
Ummm... but knowing her if there's a test it will be to other way around...

Do you want a video of that?....


Searching the internet showed (surprisingly for me) tremendous good reviews for the fabrics sheets repellent ability so I have to admit that there must be some good to them.

Do some of you know the difference between DEET and Picaridin?

The DEET have a repellent effect compare to the Picaridin that gave you an invisibility power. You could have a mosquito on your arm and he wouldn't bite because he don't you're there. (in his tiny head he might as well be on a leaf...)
