Use mosqito spray in all warm climates!

When using the permethrin spray, it's very, very important to let your clothing/gear completely dry before wearing/using it. Can't stress that enough. You can also wash it into your clothes/gear and it lasts for weeks. I use it on my camping/backpacking gear, it kills them dead on contact, but follow the directions exactly to the letter. Otherwise it's pretty toxic stuff.

Deet on any exposed skin, and permethrin on clothing and gear. Deet strength depends where I am, and what I'm doing. If I'm going up the the UP in summer, it's 100% deet every time. Just depends how bad the skeeters are wherever I am, but in general I'll go with the lowest concentration that does the job.

Side note about 100% deet; do not get it on anything nylon, it will melt it.
