Whenever I go to Ghana I buy OFF insect repellent. It worked great for me :)

Do the mosquitoes bite all day or just at night? That will determine what level of DEET you should look for in the repellent.

DEET-based insect repellents are available in a range of concentrations from5 percent to 100 percent. A 5 percent product will provide approximately 90 minutes of protection and a 100 percent product approximately 10 hours. The "effective" time increases as you increase the concentration of DEET.

I just got back from the amazon jungle and if your not too above it crushing termites and rubbing it on your body works really good. Mosquito's are attracted to sweat and carbon dioxide. Try to breath away from yourself and keep dry.

Avon also makes a specific insect repellent that I have found works great - mosquitoes love me too.

It is Skin-so-soft Bug Guard Plus IR3535. It is water resistant, hypoallergenic, unscented and has SPF 15 sunscreen. You can buy it by catalogue or at an Avon store.

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

I have the same problem in Vietnam. The all you can eat buffet starts the minute I hit the ground. Deep Woods Off is the best, but I couldn't find it there and you can't take it with you.

Do they check? India doesn't technically let you take it with you either but they don't check. We take it with us all the time. Deep Woods works like a charm!

Of course, a mosquito net at night is vital. You don't want to breate deet all night.

I'm assuming (always a mistake with me) that Homeland wouldn't let it on the plane.
