Leland on the Ultrathon Insect Repellent Lotion
Ultrathon's patented 3M Controlled Release Technology was developed to give US Military personnel long-lasting protection in challenging situations, so you can be sure it's the best insect repellent available for people who spend time in rugged outdoor environments. Why battle mosquitos, deer flies, no-see-ums when you're trying to have a great time fishing? I forgot my Ultrathon one day last August wet wading on a Wyoming freestone and got drilled repeatedly on my hands, face arms and legs! Never again! I've got a tube of this stuff in each one of my gear bags, as well as my vest. I like the
added protection from Lyme Disease carrying ticks, as well. In some parts of New Zealand, the sand flies will gnaw you silly unless you come prepared with Ultrathon
