My point was that Aly's comment does not apply in the tropics. Quote: "Look, getting a skitta ( more slang) bite is not the end of the world. Have a scratch, dab on some Calamine lotion with a cotton puff ( if you are a sook) and get on with your holiday.
We live with them all year round, and unless you are completely uncovered at night or get millions of bites, its just one of those things in life." unquote.
