New Meat: Mosquitoes Go Hard Once Again


You would think that by now I would have the whole battle against mosquitoes under control. It appears that I am no better armed than I was the last time. Instead of waiting for the first bite, I was proactive and just sprayed at every opportunity. Before training, I spray. After my shower, I spray. Before I go to bed, I spray.

I know it may seem a bit strange to spray before I go to bed, but you know once mosquitoes are on to you—they wage a war at all hours, especially at night.

Well, nothing has worked. I have been attacked. They didn’t even spare my neck (and this is a first—a low blow I might add). I am up for suggestions from South American natives or those individuals who have successfully resided relatively bite free in this area of the world.

It’s not a cute sight when combined with some training blemishes. The legs are looking like a construction zone, but I know this is only temporary. I just need a little help on how to get over the hump.
