vampire Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Bought a bottle of this off internet 'skin so soft' dry oil spray,think it was about £5 and £3 delivery ,works well and drys quickly with a beautifull fragrance you will need two bottles as you will want to wear it all the time On the ingedients label which usually lists in order of greatest content,the citronella is the last on the list.

mereside Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) i will also confirm it does work spent a few days on the west coast of scotland in july and it worked a treat i have heard people saying its rubbish and doesnt work but what i found is it stops midge actually landing on you face or hands. it doesnt stop them hovering around you which people find destressing but i havnt found anything that makes them go away. dont forget to cover your body not just face and hands or you will have bites on you legs as mossy bites through clothing im off back next week so will be using again . it was on offer from avon at 3 pounds not sure if that is still the case. i have both new and old formulas and both are good not sure if this helped but i used it a few days before going after each shower in the hopes it soaked in ,wayne Edited September 2, 2010 by mereside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billytheghillie Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 its great stuff, but mind and put on before going out, as it seems to work better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian750 Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Yes this stuff does work, but get the dry oil spray as there's loads of different kinds, we've been using this on horses for years to stop them being bitten in the summer. Always spray a bit on ourselves too though cos horsefly bites are not funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magman Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Never worked for me it's in a green bottle right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jos Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Never worked for me it's in a green bottle right ? No the right stuff to use is in the pink bottle. I use it all the time whilst out fishing and shooting. Not so much for stalking though as it really has a strong smell. Jos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokoe Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I'll take a bottle, pending price of course. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markio Posted September 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Price looks to be around £4.50 delivered. Just got to figure out postage before i set that price in stone. Sorry to be vague, i'm just trying to put a price up ASAP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blue/green one has been abut for years and was always used for the insect repellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norrie Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Hiya, We've been using this for years while fishing/camping/BBQ'ing on the West Coast of Scotland...it certainly does work, tho', you need to reapply every 1/2 hour or so to keep up the repellant effect......... Also, it's only Woodland Fresh that works.. http://www.alternativeinsectrepellent.co.uk/ I wont be needing any tho, I've got loads of stock..we get it at 3 for a tenner at the boot fairs up here...... but a great idea for the forum... Well done that man.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Geordie Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Used this stuff for years! There is an ingredient very similar to Citronella that keeps the blighters away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
