vanilla extract works and ultrathoin kills them.

Buggins works really good too.
My family has always used the Deet that you buy at an Army surplus store. I just went there about 2 weeks ago and purchased 2 bottles for $3 each. It is very powerful stuff so I would not use it on infants or pregnant women. Works for gnats, ticks, mosquitos, red bugs, and more.
The military stuff is 100% DEET but I found this info on another site:
DEET is often sold and used in spray or lotion in concentrations up to 100%. Consumer Reports found a direct correlation between DEET concentration and hours of protection against insect bites. 100% DEET was found to offer up to 12 hours of protection while several lower concentration DEET formulations (20%-34%) offered 3–6 hours of protection. Other research has corroborated the effectiveness of DEET. The Center for Disease Control recommends 30-50% DEET.
X2 on the vanilla extract. I had to use it myself to believe it, but another member on the IN board mentioned it a few weeks back, and I've been taking it every trip. Went out friday night for a nightstalk, and had had no issues with bugs, had to explain to the wife why I smelled so sweet when I got home though!!
x3 on Vanilla exract.
