jrhana-

Deep Woods Off is the best I have ever used. While I am flyfishing, I use a combination of cheap cigars and insect repellant to ensure comfort. The cantainer that I kept in my fishing vest ran out this year and, when I went to replace it, I could not find any of the Deep Woods Off. I noticed that fabulous product is 19% Deet while Cutters and the others were only 6.5%. Do you think that the lawyers--or threat thereof-- have caused Johnson's Wax to reduce the Deet content in the repellant?

There is a product from REI called Jungle Juice
http://www.rei.com/

<http://www.rei.com/online/store/ProductDisplay?storeId=8000&catalogId=40000008000&productId=....

It is 95% DEET.
If it doesn't keep the mosquitoes away, at least it smells strong.

Oh, and it WILL take paint/finish off fishing lures.
