I camped down in some creek bed one year in Summer there and got ab-so-lutly eaten alive by redbugs... course I didn't know it until the next day driving home. Some story for the COPs when I start weavin' all over the road scratch scratch.

Permanone is the best stuff you can use for chiggers and ticks.

However, I doubt it would be 100% effective in Sipsey in August.

i think Alabama is a testing ground for crap like that...bug nets would work

If a product holds up in Alabama in August, I would rely on it almost anywhere on the planet.
