SAFELY DEFEND AGAINST FLYING INSECTS

Activities like gardening, hiking, or birdwatching can be annoyingly interrupted by a variety of flying insects wherever you may be.

In Florida, we have “no see-ums” on the tennis courts and golf courses in the late afternoon. Many of these sadistic flying nuisances seem to cherish the opportunity to buzz around head high and if not biting per se, have the audacity to fly inside our ears, nose, and mouths without authorization.

The dual layer fabric bucket hat creates the perfect layering system to control these sadistic little beasts. Simply set the Cooler Bucket Hat down and spray the outside fabric with a light layer of bug repellent. I have used all natural formulas, and for a more aggressive defense, spray the outside lightly with a DEET or similar chemical based bug spray.

For me, it’s comforting to know that any spray used will sit on the outside fabric while the inner terry cloth is the layer in physical contact with my scalp. Also, the fact that the brim covers the ears and neck helps produce a scented “force field” that allows me to continue with my outdoor activity without being distracted by these flying insects.

If you enjoy outdoor activities but not the flying bugs that may participate, try a Cooler Bucket Hat and a light coat of repellent as the ultimate bug defense!
