Thanks. I just caught the tail end of the programme and was going to watch it on iPlayer.
I get bitten like mad by mozzies but, to be honest, have never found any commercial products that really work. I've tried Deet but have no idea what PMD is.
I read in a walking magazine years ago that a mixture of Dettol and Johnsons baby oil was very good. Apparently the smell wears off after a while
My old dad, now 89, said a good cigar would always keep the mozzie's away, well that was his excuse anyway! When he used to take the family camping down on the Cote d Azur back in the 1960's and 1970's.
When I saw the thread title I thought, 'I know the weather's been a bit mad lately, and my grass hasn't stopped growing - but SURELY not mozzie bites already??' Am relieved to read that it's just about recommendations!
------------- Always edited for sloppy typing - when I spot it!
Hi , a little mozzie tip that I learnt when I lived in Sweden many years ago , if you have a bite that is driving you mad with the itching , for this you need a lighted cigarette if you are a non smoker you will have to borrow one , hold the lighted fag as near to the bite as you can stand ( without burning yourself ) and hold it there for 20 to 30 seconds , then after that it wont bother you with the itching again , it really does work and for 20 to 30 seconds of discomfort will avoid hours of scratching
