I can't find the thread where this was discussed ... Someone mentioned bee sting allergies & a number of suggestions on avoiding getting stung were offered.
Yesterday I picked up my new Epi-Pen prescription and noticed several items to avoid that I'd never seen/noticed before. I thought this info might be helpful to others...
The things that were new to me (& maybe others) are set off by ***.
"Suggestions for Avoidence of Insect Stings:
Avoid using strong perfumes found in hair sprays, hair tonics, ***suntan lotions*** and other cosmetics. Avoid wearing brightly colored clothing, flowery prints, or ***black, as this color seems to attract insects more than white, green, tan, or khaki garments.***" :eek: :eek:
