Fly Repellent

I went North recently and the flys were shocking.They just drank the Aerogard. Any good ideas besides a fly net would be great .cheers Pete

Aeroguard

is useless. Would never bother with that crap. I've found Bushman to be the best of the shelf repellent. Others may think differently.

Bushman

I agree with Matt bushman is better but sometimes the flys have no respect for that either. I used a sunscreen once with in built fly reppellent that was damn good, can't remember the name I think Sherbert recommends cloudy ammonia but the side effects of that mean you will become a Toyota driver, I'd rather deal with the flys lol

Been bush a few times over

Been bush a few times over the last few months and the flys are thick. Bushmans/aerogard/Rid........ nothing worked for more then a few seconds. A fly net was the only thing that worked.

I douse myself with Off. Works pretty well for me...although I do lay it on rather thick.

Desert Dwellers insect

Desert Dwellers insect repellent. This stuff is THE shit. I've only seen it here but I'm sure its available elsewhere. The new scram is pretty good. Look for the new blue can. works very well, better than bushmans.
