    Chris, you are a Saint !!

    What a fabulous list of uses for SSS. I am going to try the one where you sponge it round the doors to keep out flying insects. I have a caravan on the West Coast and normally keep a citronella candle lit when its warm and spray the bodies with SSS, now I will spray the door too.

    And SSS smells so much nicer than vinegar for a lot of your uses!

    I have been searching for info on this product for ages tonight reading page by page all of the links on one of the other links on the site then a few minutes ago found that theres a search for such things silly me and maybe I am starting to prefer the new site!!

    I am off to Sydney a few weeks after I return from Spain, wont need mozzy repelant for Majorca in March but will in OZ as friend there doesnt have screens on windows or doors. Anyway did you try SSS and did it work, should I buy the full range of products as Mozzies love to bite me?

    Hiya Suzy_Babe

    i had the same problem a few months ago when this offer was on, i ordered the large woodland fresh bath oils normally retail @ £9 each but online they were showing as 3 for £6 so i placed my order, I recieved an invoice for £113, but rang the customer service line and they were happy to credit my account, explaining that the £9 ones are not normally included in the offer, but has it was online she honored my order.

    Well done Avon, we got there in the end ;):D

    Is this the right product - there is no mention of woodland fresh? The previously mentioned product code doesn't bring anything up.

    If so it is currently only £2.50 instead of a fiver.

    Does anyone know if Avon skin-so-soft is as effective against mosquitos as it is against midges , I've got a holiday booked to an area that can be quite bad for mossies.
    ???

    I buy this product for my horse to protect him against flies etc. and use it on holiday for myself. It works for both of us and is cheaper and lasts longer than anything else.

    I'm an Avon rep and I've ordered 10 of these for customers to keep the beastie bites at bay! They swear by it!
