Tuck your longs in to your socks to stop littel bugs biting your legs.



SORRY BUT I HAD TO SAY THIS TO GET IT OUT OF MY SYSTEM.

The little rascals bite and bite and I only ever find out an hour or so later.

They are crafty and rampage around mainly early morning and as the sun goes down...

I thought it was just me, and/or that I was a particular target(paranoid or what), but they bite others too!

They even go up my trouserlegs(not past the knee, thank goodness), so long trousers aren't much better than shorts.

Deet didn't stop them.

It's a mosquito and insect repellant I've used in foreign climes to keep the d**n things off me.

Works fine on the big bugs, but the mini biters on my plot treat it like an appetizer or, perhaps more accurately, like a meat tenderizer...

OH MY GOD.

Tell Ken and he'll have you branded as disabled and have to come and clean up after you...
