They were horrible in the Forest Home area. Cutter, Deep Woods Off, Repel, etc. did NOTHING. I bought some Vanilla Extract and will try soon. They worry the hell out of turkeys as well. Taking pictures of a dead bird and they were swarming around his head. Spawn of Satan!

Found a repellent that's works very well. Worked for me yesterday. It is called Buggins Insect Repellent. Repels gnats and no-see-ums. Smells like peppermint.

Funny you say that. I just logged on to ask if anyone had used Buggins. A friend of mine told me that it worked too.

I usually hunt in a Bug Tamer suit. It’s warm, but keeps the bugs out.

I was digging them out of my ears and nose Wednesday morning. Never seen them this bad. I couldn't see where I was walking because they were getting in my eyes so fast I was blinded.

This is not a joke. Victoria’s Secret amber Romance lotion is the best gnat repellant you will ever use. Though I also here Victoria’s Secret “bombshell” lotion works great too.

I got the tip on an old forum that referred to it as a Cajun rice farmers trick. I hate those little buggers.


Quack quack.

I use it too and it does seem to work. They still buzz around some but nothing like before putting it on. The Amber Romance perfume does NOT work as good for me though. Make sure to show it to your wife/girlfriend BEFORE you go hunting because you WILL smell like a 2 dolla hoe when you come home!!!!
