Thanks - I have never used that stuff and I am going to give it a try - I saw it works on chiggers and while I hardly ever find ticks on me about one a year I get eaten up by chiggers - they got my feet so bad one year I could not wear shoes for a couple of days.
I need to read up and see if it is kid safe as my son stepping out side is like ringing a dinner bell for the mosquito's. I think they come from miles around for him.
