It's kind of difficult to test both, but if I get another bite this year (might be out of time for that though) I'll give the pen a try.Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13393082652312828458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-33799066321747937852015-10-16T11:25:33.309-05:002015-10-16T11:25:33.309-05:00Mosquitos rarely go after me, a fluke I've ben...Mosquitos rarely go after me, a fluke I've benefited from my entire life. However I think it's payback time though as something has been biting me regularly for the last two late summer/fall seasons in the garden. Tiny extremely irritating bites, my reward for time spent out in the garden yesterday is a new one right under my bra strap, fun. I bought AfterBite as a liquid in "pen" form (dab it on the bite, erase the itch) and it doesn't work worth beans. I guess I need to try and track down the cream.danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7306285038402649171.post-22490138562641330582015-10-15T15:14:07.558-05:002015-10-15T15:14:07.558-05:00Great post.

The only thing I've found that truly repells them is also the worst for your skin--DEET. Maybe I'll try Natrapel since it's at least marginally better.<br /><br />AfterBite Plus sounds like a sure winner though. I'll look for it.Gerhard Bock (Succulents and More)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17583583634141549759noreply@blogger.com
