Know any brill insect repellent or got any advice on vitamins to take to prevent gettin bitten? |
Travel Info I'm going to cayo coco Cuba next month, the tripadvisor has said that there are really bad mosquitos there as it's around a lagoon. I've been recommended to use deet repellent does anyone know any websites or shops i could get it from, also i've heard that taking vitamins a couple of weeks before you go helps does anyone know what vitamins they are? Any advice would be great thanks Travel Tips I was in Cayo Coco myself in April this year and can honestly say I never got bitten by mosquito's once, we had more of a problem with sand flies than anything, they bite round the bottom of your legs, having never been anywhere like that before I had no idea what to do, one kind lady advised us to spray mosquito repellent from our knees to our feet every night before we went out and that stopped the pesky little things, as you have a month to go take antihistamines for at least 10 days before you get to Cayo Coco as that will really help with the sand flies and if you do happen to get bitten by mossies, Avon do a after sun with mosquito repellent in it too and that is absolutely excellent, you can go on line and find Avon yourself and order it that way, Boots sell a 50% deet mosquito spray too and that's good, I was terrified before I went to Cayo Coco with the stuff Trip Advisor wrote about the place and the mossies, but honestly they spray every night and we only came across a few people who had been bitten but they had left their patio windows open all night, just relax its nowhere near as bad as its made out to be, have a fantastic time and enjoy yourself, you will love it. Others Buy it from any drug stores. Higher the deet the better but not for the kids. Stayed in the water alot (beaches) and the salt stayed on my skin. Mosquito don't like it. Also, my friend told me to take "Dukoral" before my trip, it's for Travellers' diarrhea. http://www.pslgroup.com/dg/2325ce.htm... Vitamin B Complex. Take it everyday before you go and while you are there. Your skin releases a smell that the mozzies don't like that is unnoticable to you. Just get any insect repellent you can from the chemist and use loads of it. It normally stinks, but better than getting bitten. Get one of those electronic things for your room at night too. i have found that using avon skin so soft dry oil spray works really well as a insect reppelent allthough its not sold as one theres something in it that the insects dont like There is a product on the market called a zapperclick and what you do is zap yourself with it and it soothes itching and eases swelling. Costs about 拢2-50 |
