You know that some people are just more prone to mosquito bites and such? Well, I am one of those. So starting out this year, I stocked up on enough Tabard. As it turns out, mosquitoes are quite courteous and will respect the fact that you went to all the trouble of smearing yourself with a stinking cream. Gnats, however, are not so well-mannered…
Whenever I looked at the 10 plagues that hit Egypt, I never thought the gnats that God sent to rise from the dust were a very hectic one. This was before my first real encounter with them in Brazil… You would think a little bug like that can’t really do anything, but believe me, they gnaw at you like crazy!! Our team learned this the hard way. And you don’t see them bite, you don’t feel them, you just see this little spot of blood and you know the suffering that is to follow…
The result: extreme discomfort, inflamed itching, swollen ankles and just plain ugly bite marks!
So if you want to avoid having legs like this:
- Only wear clothes that cover EVERY part of your body;
- Eat all the garlic in the world;
- Or run, run for your life!!

Hahahahahaha.......you got to love it! Ummmmmmm.......I mean, oh dear that's not very nice, shame man:P. Watch out, Gautamala has them everywhere!!
Those gnats! The other problem with gnats is that you cannot kill and squash it as a mosquito!!! And there is of course the swelling of your legs that they look like you are 9 months pregnant!!!! Thank you God for my miracle boots - the gnats fancy ankles!
