Combine about 2 table spoons of Gulp Juice with a dab of Catfish snot. Mix well and apply generously to exposed skin. :thumbup: :wink:

Be careful with the Bullfrog. I used some on a friend's boat and it reacts with plastic (sunglasses). A little had spilled where we put our truck keys in the glovebox on the boat and it almost ate through the plastic on the Jeep key on my keychain.

I live on Live Oak Island and we use COLEMAN Brand "EXTREME insect protection" 40% Deet and works great on the no see ums. They can get real bad on the island.

I bought a bottle of stuff from Kevin's. Sorry I have forgotten the name, but I do remember that it is 96% DEET. Works!!! :thumbup: And it is only $5 a bottle. :thumbup: :thumbup:
