BUG REPELLANT FROM AIMER TALBOT WOLF HUNTER
IN TEMAGAMI NORTH BAY ONTARIO AREA!
Through 20 years in the bush for the Federal government tracking
wolf and tagging them Aimer had to find a good bug repellent.
An old woodsman had told him this;
MIX PINE TAR + CITRONELLA + VASELINE
You can also add CEDAR LEAVES.
The vaseline will act as liquifier to the pine tar thus making
it easier to spread over your body.
& NO MORE BUGS TO BUG YOU!
LOL!
Believe it or not, I'm getting to the point that they don't even bother me at all now! The swarms of skeeters really bypass me if I skip a shower! Same deal with Judy! So I keep the patio size citronella pot burning when I'm working in the shed... really helps!
