Yah, everyone warns you about the mosquitoes in AK but it was the white flies that did us the most harm. When they bite, they take nickels worth of meat with them and the wound/itching are still there a week later. DEET is seasoning for them, it didn’t work (and we used industrial strength too). Then there are the ‘no-see-ums’… after week or so, we’d used so much DEET that the bugs just generally stayed away from us (except for
Also larned, ya don’t put >4% DEET directly on skin cuz you’ll go numb where it touches. ;-)
