Default Bug repellant with top off

Any one have any solutions for those annoying Mosquitos when riding topless.

I have thought about maybe getting one if those new Off brand clip on bug repellant.

I'm looking for a solution other than spraying everyone in the car down with repellant.

I love going topless with the family out to drive in burger joints and to the movies but hate the mosquito bites afterward. All of the bug sprays say to wash them off after being out and a lot of time the kids fall asleep on the way home.

Any help would be great.

Have you looked into the thermacell? It's popular with hunters and should cover the area of the jeep for burger joints and movies.

I would probably just put the OFF fans at each corner of the jeep

Your on to something... They sell those 12V fans at auto zone you could get a couple of those to Keep the wind blowing. Do that on top of having the A/C blasting at full speed.

The only real way to Keep them off is to Keep moving or Fans. Even bug spray is not 100%

Those wrist bands are terrible.....they leave a hellacious stink on the skin when you're done.
