#Insect-Repellent

A liquid that sacrifices skin pleasure to ostracize the horde of summer mosquitoes invited to the feast. Its scent is rich for better or worse offering bystanders a floral meadowscape while presenting the skin with a chemical battlefield. Applied over clothing a touch of elegance in the outdoors instantly transforms into a survival game. Its true purpose is not insect removal but selling a sense of security at a premium. After use it declares its presence like a personal perfume proving a painfully ironic defense.

A mosquito net is a fortress of sheer cloth devised by humankind in a futile bid to escape the tropical curse. Each night it stands between the creeping blood hunter and our feeble flesh, peddling the illusion of safety. Though a mere veil cannot rewrite destiny, people huddle beneath it as if enacting a sacred ritual. At times, desperate prayers for salvation hang on its frayed edges, turning sleep into a bizarre act of faith.
