Although not marketed as such, it is widely regarded to be an effective insect repellent. Wearing light-coloured clothing may attract fewer midges as, like goths, midges seem to prefer dark colours. I use the oil version on the bowling green. It is quite effective but like the midges I hate the smell. Avon Skin So Soft is a beauty product that has been recommended as a midge repellent for years, which I always thought was an old wives tale until I tried it myself. Totally agree with DDootsie, folklore indeed...If it really worked, and it was proven it really kept biting insects and the like away, they would actively promote this and widely advertise if it was fact.Calm, windless days and dull days are likely to be more midgey– midges stop flying in wind speeds greater than about 6mph.
