I have been bitten by deer flies, ticks, bees, wasps, but my number one
is mosquitos. I hate mosquitos when they are hoarding up, one year, my
wife and I were camped down in the seep lakes below Potholes, when the
wind died, we set up the tent in record time, as there were at least a
gadzillion mosquitos vying for our blood.
As to prevention of ticks and mosquitos, all DEET based repellents work
wonders for me.
