Deet causes all kinds of issues, not to be used on kids!

i have an emergency supply but i never use it on adults either , rather suffer a couple bites if possible not but dont use anything on my skin these days as its a semipermeable membrane i do not wish penetrated anymore , i feel the same of things we ingest for pains and such , i use nothing as long as i can get away with it , only when my back goes out of place on a weekend and i cant get to the doc till monday do i consider and aspirin , advil , tylinol and such , then i rotate them so i dont load up on any one item - i can limp by till i get it fixed ,
so far no drugs at all , im hop[ing to keep it that way till i go in my sleep [hopefully] or whatever

How does DEET affect the nervous system? Deet interferes with the normal breaking down of acetylcholine (ACh), the most common neurotransmitter in the central nervous system While I was in the army they issued us a product call Nero it was 99% Deet with a carrier, always made us sick.

I went moose hunting in northern Manitoba several years ago in early September. Unseasonably warm. I have NEVER seen mosquitoes like that and I was raised in Petawawa and Shilo! Thank God I had my 95% DEET! Even the guys with Deep Woods Off were begging me to share! It also works pretty good on ticks, but took the finish off a Ruger No1 I owned back then.

The best mossie repellent I ever found isn't a mosquito repellent at all. "Avon Skin So Soft Original Body Lotion with Jojoba"! |

I'm not sure if they are still around, but in the 70's working on the railway they supplied Amway bug repellent. It seemed pretty good.
