Hey,

Anyone have any info. on using sunscreen with DEET based tick repellants?

Due to a previovs experience with heatstroke the whole "long sleeves, long pants, yada yada yada" thing doesn't quite work for me.

I don't want to go out without either product....and I'm NOT STAYING IN THE HOUSE!!!!!!!

We are going to have to get you two 50 gallon drums.

One filled with sunscreen.. the other with insect repellent! Then as you go out the door... you can dip once in each barrel.. and proceed on your merry way.

Talking about going out the door..

I am on my way now.. but wanted to bring this back up so others might assist you.

In the meantime.. do a search on a clothing product called Repel Permanone.

Might be of use to you.
