Bug proof clothes

[Violet]

Just discovered these at the Ex Officio clothes web site:

Seems like a good idea. These clothes supposedly repel "mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers, midges, no-see-ums, ants and other annoying and potentially threatening insects."

Anyone heard of this or use these clothes? I think it's a good idea if you don't need to use insect repellant sprays/lotions.

I havent heard of them but I can tell you that mosquitos are attracted to the color blue so it would be something to avoid when choosing an outfit.

I used to wear a lot of blue as a kid, & I had awful mosquito bites. Now I regret buying a pair of blue suede shoes.
