I'm currently sitting in an area outdoors with mosquitos.
I don't know how to stay outdoors reliably without either (a) a break from the mosquitos or (b) willpower to influence my psychological and behavioral histamine response.
hey Karl,
i am traveling, so this is not signed - but the following advice for bugs: - citronella candles for general deterrence. - DEET spray or lotion for personal protection.
I have 3 citronella candles and I am aware of wild herbs that can be used to make more. regarding allergies, i usually have to wear a mask outdoors now, my
allergies have gotten so bad. :/
Sounds similar to mosquitos, am I off base? the good news is that N95 masks work to filter out all airborne allergens.
if i don't wear one, a few hours outdoors and i get feverish, start to have trouble breathing (head&chest inflammation)
Some people get so sensitized this even happens in damp buildings and stuff. It seems important to learn how what changes it. Honestly I wish I had the freedom to suffer outdoors. like your mosquitos, i tune out the mask when focusing on other things.
Luckily I have clothes I can rip if I need a mask. good luck! enjoy nature :)
:P Thanks. Hope you're doing something you enjoy.
