I keep them away with clothing. Mostly I wear regular clothes that cover me fully and add a netted face covering that goes over a baseball cap to keep it out of my face. If it’s very buggy I have a bug shirt (that is also netted and where not netting it’s thick) and pants designed to resist insect bites.
So are you essentially walking around in netting? I think I can get behind that. I might have some hanging around the house. Thanks so much, have a great day!

Yes, I have one of these: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/adult-bug-resistant-mesh-head-and-neck-net-for-camping-fishing-hiking-gardening-0782910p.0782910.html that I wear under my top layer of clothes. It’s very easy to see out of. It’s important to wear a hat under to keep it off your skin otherwise they can just bit through.
My actual bug shirt has less fine mesh and I use it less often: https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/bushline-adult-bug-resitant-pullover-jacket-w-zip-off-mesh-hood-for-camping-fishing-hiking-0782992p.0782992.html I will probably wear it backcountry hiking this year.
