Things to think about ( re: bugs )
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Add ten drops of oil of thyme and 20
drops of pennyroyol to a jar of sunblock,
shake and you have a combination sunblock/bug repellant.
Ammonium hydroxide & a few drops of oil
(baby or mint oil) --> welcome relief
from bug bites.
Put pancake syrup or sugar disolved in water
no more than 15 feet from camp and bugs will
hang out on that instead of you.
Hydrogen peroxide kills tic germs.
