that you can' turn faster than those biting insects?

I am going to take a fly swatter with me the next time I go out!

I got some insect repellent wipes from Aldi/Lidl (can't remember which but I'm sure other stores do them too) and run them over my legs, arms, neck and forehead before running. Much better now. Still get the odd one but I figure I sweat some of the stuff off. My car medical kit also contains a tube of anaesthetic antiseptic cream for quick application. Trouble with swatting them is is seems to waft more of our scent around attracting more of the little blighters!
