  • The grrl is looking for midget nets. Pyramid stuff any good? Same brand as the DEET that I never used...

    Can't believe I'm allowing this. HTFU.

  • I don't know what Pyramid is. Ive never used a repellent for anything since the stuff I took to Thailand stained everything it touched forever.

    I have a Smidge head net and this new cheapy hooded shirt thing thats on its way.

    I now hope the midges are out in force, I'd love your opinion on em.

  • Smidge is good. We both had cheap head nets from camping shop and worked ok. If you are camping it really helps to find somewhere with a bit of breeze, higher up and not next to water/in a forest. One night we were destroyed (July) just after rain on the edge of a forestry road. Next night we were up higher, near Loch Lyon and it was fine.

    It's worth taking repellent and a net, may be absolutely fine, but you never regret taking a spare inner tube, even if you don't use it.
