Bug Jacket

I always have one of these in my backpack during bug season. Sometimes you are in situations where all the bug spray in the world isn’t going to do anything but MELT PLASTIC!  Bug jackets are 100% effective and chemical-free.  It’s always a better alternative to a chemical bath.  They may be a little cumbersome and annoying to wear, but nowhere near as annoying as constantly swatting, getting eating alive and itching for days.  During my years tree planting, I and all of my fellow-planters wore one every day as a piece of necessary equipment. Bonus attribute is that it acts like a suit of armour against ticks.  Packing these can save a camping or hiking trip from becoming a nightmare.
