Coming Down Soon? Bring Extra Insect Repellent

A can of cheap repellent will be much appreciated by your Mexican friends and neighbors. Mexican repellents are wimpy and Aután is a joke amongst Mexicans. Even hyper expensive "OFF" is a pathetic 5% DEET.

There's going to be some FAT cattle standing on the centerline in a month or two.

And photo ops to boggle the mind...

Sounds like its pretty tropical down there at BA---pretty sweltering up here even in Long Beach. How much rain have you gotten this summer in total?

You cant beat Bens Mosquito Repellent. 95% Deet!!! Other than the slight burning sensation and your body temp raising a few degrees, it works.

For the huge mosquitos in Canada I found that a good rub down with the original (brownish color) and cheap LISTERINE works as well as any of the expensive brands with Deet.
