Thanks for the list. You may want to check out permethrin based bug spray instead of DEET. Once you spray it on your clothes it is good for up to 6 washes so you don’t have to worry about washing off in the rain. You can treat your bug out clothes and just leave them in your BOB and then you are sweet.
Thanks.
