No one likes small forest pests: mosquitoes and midges, as well as all others that can not only spoil the mood, but also jeopardize the normal state of a person. Those who, on duty or because of their hobby, "live" in the forest, as a rule, know proven methods of protection from the listed misfortunes. Today we will talk at once from three methods proven by nature lovers over the years.
Important: before using the methods below in practice, you need to make sure that you do not have an allergic reaction to the ingredients used. In particular, for formic acid.
Method one
The first method is the least humane, but at the same time it is one of the most effective. The first step is to prepare two warm bottles of sugar syrup water. They are laid out on the inhabited anthill. As soon as goosebumps stick around both bottles, take gauze and a saucepan with hot water of 60-70 degrees Celsius. The bottles are removed from the nest, and the insects are shaken off them onto the expanded gauze. The rag is tied so that the ants are covered. The ball is dipped in hot water. Then it is removed and wrung out. So the procedure will try several times, as a result, we get an ant essence. It is used for rubbing and processing clothes.

Method two
The second method will not appeal to most people, but it is still extremely effective and can be used when insects and harmful arthropods in the forest are in real trouble. All you need to do is not soak your outer garment too much with gasoline vapor. To do this, it is enough to leave the jacket and pants on the motorcycle gas tank or just on the fuel canister.

Method three
Finally, you can turn to formic acid again for help. To do this, it is enough to remove the jacket and put it on the outside on the anthill. In this position, the clothes are left for about 1-2 hours. Goose bumps will abundantly saturate the outer part of the jacket (as well as partly its lining) with acid, which forest pests cannot tolerate. The only difficulty will be getting the ants off your clothes completely.
