Sorry, just like to get the facts straight when it comes to reptiles. smile

Water Moccasins aka Cottonmouth snakes are not reported to live that far north. Heck, they are barely in KY.

Not sure about copperheads. Some say they do, some say they don't.

And Eastern Diamondback rattlesnakes are not found up that way. But Timber rattlesnakes are reported up there.

Eastern Diamondback:

Mosquitoes too!

They were pretty numerous at the campsite. I had an effective pump spray repellant and as long as I kept it fresh, I was fine. However, when I got home, I noticed I had small patch of about a dozen or so bites on my back where I could not reach so I will bring an aerosol spray next time. Do mosquitoes coils work? It was a nuisance to keep swatting them and I need something small to pack that would help.

mozzies are a PItA...

...but Black Flies are a 100X worse!

skeeters haunt still or stagnant waters

whereas Black Flies ("Buffalo Gnats")
prefer fresh running water.

My 2 favorite camping spots were
A) The Delaware Water Gap and along
the Appalachian Trail. A Mix of fresh
running water & bogs.
B) Peekamoose Mountain Reservation.
along a large trout stream running
between 2 of 3 reservoirs in the area.

There are hundreds of mosquito repellents
on the market... but nothing that deters
a determined swarm of black flies!

EXCEPT! TA-DA! "SKIN-SO-SOFT" by Avon

worked so well, they finally introduced it
to the public as an OFFICIAL Bug Repellent

I haven't had occasion to try the new stuff,
sadly I no longer go camping or back packing frown

The original is nice because it's child friendly
even from infant on up. IT'S VERY EFFECTIVE...
...safer for the finish on your bike...
...and you'll Smell Nice Too...

smile Good to know.. Thanx!

All my life people have been pointing
them out to me and mis-identifying them as
being dangerous and therefore a must-to-avoid.
