How to defend against these demons?

Left, endure.
Right, get bitten a few times each year, and you get temporal immunity.

PERMETHRIN, ANON. USE IT.

you have to start with teacup chihuahuas and work your way up to irish wolfhounds

You don't. Just let them have their chance.

BRUH NOOOOOO

>You don't. Just let them have their chance.
NOOOO DUDE NO
FFS
It all boils down to
DONT GET BIT
MINIMIZE BITES
Both carry diseases that instantly transfer upon being bit, while ticks may have to stay upon you for 2 days to get the diseases you really don't want
>>
>>2797159
Put it on your clothes, idiot.
>>
>>2797159
Do you just look at the bottle and decide, TL:DR and fit the whole thing up your arsehole?
Don't like DEET, use Icaridin instead. There are quite a few ways of getting a final solution the bugs that WILL fuck your shit up with diseases that make 30% DEET look like a sniffle.
>>
>>2795124
lol

Introduce thousands of animals such as sheep and cattle etc.
European chads like in the UK, Swiss etc I assumed figured this out long ago. This clears the forests of nuisances and trims the landscape neatly allowing wind and sunshine the thrive which those demons hate. Thank me later faggot
>>
>>2797535
Thanks, I'll pack some sheep next time I'm going out

cover yourself in dust

Ive tried this and it does not work

Move north and only hike in winter

This. Live somewhere where there aren't any mosquitoes or ticks you fucking idiot.
>>
>>2795023
Stop shaving. Mosquitoes cant get through dense hair.

Ticks aren't an issue as long as you keep moving and put down a pad / blanket when resting in the grass. I'm living in what's supposedly the most tick-infested area of Europe, go out every weekend (and often on weekday evenings as well) and in the last 10 years, the only time I've seen ticks was when a half-dead hedgehog collapsed in my garden and had a few of them stuck to his nose.

Which one is it?

He said "thousands", not "some", you're going to need a bigger backpack
>>
>>2798432
The DNR brutally removes sheep because they are supposed “invasive” (lets just conveniently ignore the literal thousands of other invasives, humans included). Well you know whats interesting??? is all the nicest places I’ve been around here all had sheep. The places they fenced off without sheep? Absolute shithole you wouldn’t step foot in (you literally cant, as the weeds are ten ft tall). This is what essentially what happens when they put “educated” lefty suburbanites in management of public lands. They are not /out/ people, just dikes with degrees and boomers with there head shoved up there own ass, and theres nothing you can do about it.
>>
>>2798435
I was trying to make a joke that he needed to put thousands of sheep in a backpack, you hair-trigger twat

why do people bitch and moan about DEET

was using it daily all last summer and had no issues

They always find a way, same for ticks.

>>2795023
Just stay inside. Going outside is gay.

Just be mindful of where and when they appear.

Skeeters are most active at dusk/night and near water. Seek shelter or a smokey fire by dusk and avoid watery areas if possible
Ticks hang out in tall grass. Avoid walking through grass if it can be helped, and check pant legs when it can’t be avoided. Check your self head to toe every night and you’ll be fine

We still get plenty of both in bongland. The midges up in Scotland are horrendous too
>>
>>2797159
Unironically. Use it.
>>
Dismantle the CIA
>>
>>2795023
for ticks, wear compression gear. for mosquitoes, wear longer sleeves and pants. in mosquito dense areas, you'll want a bug net for your own sanity
>>
>>2795023

Learn their language. Integrate into their society, and eventually, mate with their women.
>>
Hike above the tree line. No bugs
>>
left pic....we have the scientists working on killing them off.

right pick...kill on sight order. use organophosphates to get rid of them. wear scba suit.
>>
>>2795023
Dont live in the northeast

Turn them into burgers

But I thought it was just the west that was forced to eat them?
>>
>>2798269
ticks are abundant up north because there is no natural predators in abundance.

I think it's fine as long as you keep it far away from them before it dries
>>
>>2795023
I didn’t get bitten by a single tick last year, I think all the yellow jackets killed them off. I didn’t get stung by a yellow jacket until November either. Great year considering I was getting raped by ticks and wasps in 22 and 23.

As far as mosquitos go, just ignore their bites and they won’t itch. I barely react to mosquito bites nowadays. I built up antibodies or some shit because used to get massive welts and now I barely feel a tingle.
>>
>>2797159
Shit, this. If I use this I start seeing shit that isn’t there.
>>
>>2795023
Wouldn't the solution be:
For left use long pants.
For right, also use long pants and tuck into boots.

So basically don't go around in shorts in the wild.
>but muh heat
Endure.
>>
Ok getting a thousand mosquito bites is one thing, but how do you sleep with them buzzing around your head? Thats way more insanity inducing
