Midge defence? (lemmy.world)

If anyone has any good tips on beating the midges, please share them!

I got absolutely devoured this weekend up by Loch Latrine (edit: Katrine) (completely forgot it was midge season, so I was unprepared).

They don't put them off, just makes the bites less inflamed. You need to team them with insect repellent.
