We were out for only few min. and Sadie got 8 bites on her legs and Dylan got 6.
Well I guess I need to stock up on some spray because... can I tell you we were up till midnight scratching. I tried tape and bug lotion and anti itch it was rough. Now the bits are all water blisters and scabs from all the scratching.

Oh and I just read that EEE virus was found in our area. Now the worrying begins.

I know this sounds crazy, but have you tried dryer sheets? I can't stand bug spray, and someone told me this tip a few years ago. It actually does work...not 100%, but neither does bug spray. We have mosquitoes really badly around here, and when we go outside, I tuck a dryer sheet in each of Shelby's pockets, so that part of them is sticking out. I also put a few in my pockets. They do keep bug bites less, it seems.

We've had bugs really bad too!

And the flys out at MIL's house have been HORRIBLE! They are biting just as bad as the mosquito's.
