If you are one of those people who seem to attract biting insects or are the outdoorsy type who frequents areas affected by ticks, midges and mosquitoes, put the Care Plus Bugsox Adventure (stg£3.50) on your essential purchases list.
These are technical seamless socks so perfect for blister free hiking. But better still, they are impregnated with Healthguard Vital Protection, a long-lasting insect repellent that will keep the biters at bay. The socks have been shown to reduce bites by 80-90 per cent.
The socks also use Coolmax fibres which means moisture is transported away from the skin to the outer layer of the sock, where it can evaporate quickly. This will help your feet blister and smell free, regardless of the heat. Bamboo yarns, which have a natural anti-bacterial effect, will also allow your feet to remains clean and fresh.
Care Plus Bugsox Adventure are available via www.worldwidenets.co.uk or contact www.tropicare.eu.
