    A little head net would be a good idea if you are going into a pretty bad area. but get one with a very fine mesh since poor quality ones i've heard can bugs stuck between rings.

    Just as a note mosquitoes do not like Vitamin B so taking an all B Vitamin once a day can cut down the bite quite a bit

    The B leaches out of the skin a you sweat they don't like it SWEET!!!!

    Nasty does not even begin to describe those bastards. Check for ticks when you get out of the woods, lyme disease is no joke. Boonie hat, skin so soft, jungle boots, is how I get my swamp on.
