This person sent this message to me. I thought DEET was a dangerous product to use? Kathy Sater-Partch "JoKay's" Repellant: WEST NILE VIRUS My note: INTERESTING THAT THIS MOSQUITO, CARRYING THIS DEADLY DISEASE, IS FOUND TO BE IN NEARLY ALL STATES AND IN RECORD NUMBERS I've have found a great mosquito/biting fly cream (it has a high DEET content) and have used it in northern Minnesota. It's distributed by Watkinsm based in Minnesota. It is a milky white cream that is applied directly to the skin. It has no odor or greasy feeling on the skin. called "Watkins Great Outdoor Insect Repellent Lotion". It reminds me of the ointment I used while on the police canine unit to cover the tips of my dog's ears that were chewed up p by flies every summer. That product is no longer available on the market.
