black fly repellent
About 10 years ago, somewhere in my mid-fifties,
I agreed to take a trip through the boundary waters with a bunch of marathon bikers. On the way we stopped at the little town of Ely, MN, and wandered around a bit looking for a cold brew and I noticed a lot more marathon biker types wandering around in shorts and backpacks and many of them had little scabs on them. I learned this was due to black flie bites so I bought a couple of small bottles of BF-100 manufactured by LJB Labs. This stuff worked great when DEET would not. Also noticed it worked on black flies but not mosquitos. I'd like to find more of this stuff as I am down to my last couple of dabs but have had no luck. I like to fly fish Ontario and sometimes the black flies can be a bit distracting. The little devils take meat when they bite. Any suggestions? Thanks Buff |

Thanks guys. I did try google and found mention but
it looked like maybe the stuff had been pulled off the market. No mention of where to buy it. Maybe it's bad for humans too! Buff "Baal" wrote in message .. .
