So, first night out in a bivvy I was absolutely eaten alive by midges, while my mate 2ft to my right was totally untouched. Foolishly we forgot bug spray but I don't know if it would have fended off the swarms that chowed down on my skin. Is there a way to keep them away overnight without carrying loads of additional kit?
