Going Outdoors? Check Out the Insect Defend Patch

May 29, 2009 Peter Wood Fishing, Hunting, Ripple Outdoors 0

If your outdoor as much as me you know the value of avoiding those pesky biting bugs!

You know the sound,

BBBBBBbZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

There’s NO Need to GO Insane as you sprint to your vehicle or home.

If your hands are swatting and your arms are flailing your loosing valuable time fishing, hunting or ATVing!

Worse,,,, you likely alerted that Gobbler headed your way after trying to sit still for the last two hours!
I know the spring Gobbler season is all but over but I have been wearing these Insect Defend Patches with good success.

I still wore my camo with long sleeves and gloves but the squeeters just seemed to move on and not “bug” me as much.

I still sprayed some “deet” on my outer clothes as an additional layer against biting bugs.
I even had my Therma-cell running when the hoard of bugs attacked at the first sound of a gobble!

All in all my “bug defense system” worked extremely well. Start with my Bug Bite Patch, some deet on the clothing and my Thermo-cell at the ready for those deep wood or swamp conditions.

At the beach using just the patch works fine as its waterprooof.
