If anyone out there is suffering from mosquito bites then try Skin So Soft oil by Avon, honestly this is not just a sales pitch, but of course I do want my sales !! However when filming Braveheart in Scotland, Mel Gibson ordered crates of the stuff to use on the crew and the horses !!! This was thought newsworthy enough to warrant an article in The Times. So if you or your horses are suffering bear this in mind.

We tend to use Tiger Balm which does the trick quite nicely! Although I will admit its not so easy to get hold of in Europe... even though I did see it in Hipercor in Madrid the other day at €10 a jar!!!!

I react to mossie bites badly enough for them to be very annoying.
For the ones which get past the repellent you can buy an anti-histamine gel called Fenisil in your local Farmacia which works really well.

Each time I look around the walls move in a little tighter.

Polaramine is also very good
