I'd love some tea, yes please. No sugars no mi- oh. You meant the plants.
I'll have what they're having, minus the nutrients.

She's not going to be my guinea pig for mosquito experiments, most likely.

So it’s a well known fact that deet melts plastics. I saw a video one time of a guy spraying a heavy percentage deet insect repellent on cloudy, foggy headlights, and when he wiped it off, it looked like he had used one of those headlight restoration kits on them.
I prefer picaridin, I think it’s better for ticks, which is what really freak me out. Lyme disease is no joke
EDIT: so it looks like deet may be better at repelling ticks, but at least picaridin doesn’t melt plastics and feel greasy. And the smell of deet…the smell…lol

I'm using picaridin for skin and deet for clothing, I've seen deet melt all kinds of stuff...sunglasses, fishing poles, etc.

Yeah, I won’t use deet when I camp or backpack. Last thing I need is to melt my synthetic straps or buckles on a backpack…and I wear prescription glasses with unprotected plastic lenses…lol. Too easy to melt those

Herbal armor natural insect repellent and a mosquito head net work for me. And a bottle of spray to kill them in the air if they swarm.
