Hats as bug control

Friday April 25, 2008
We are in the process of recycling tons of metal and cleaning up things that were stored here before we bought the house.... which means we are spending lots of time outside filling dumpsters... and feeding the bugs. One thing I discovered this week is that by making the Wild Things! sun hat with a 2" brim it keeps the sun out of my eyes AND by spraying the underside of the brim with bug spray it keeps the bugs off my face and out of my eyes and ears. The best part is when I'm sweating, the bug spray is staying on the hat not rolling into my eyes!
