I don't know how to make this more clear, but if you are prone to being bitten by anything airborne that enjoys chewing on human skin, take every precaution and cover yourself with bug repellent and clothes in order to protect your sanity. I thought I had done enough by wearing long pants and using a heavy repelling lotion I had bought on Amazon. However, I was not safe from the bites. Even through my pants, they got to my legs and the lotion did nothing it was supposed to. I should have gotten the highest level of DEET possible and bathed myself in it. If you don't want to leave the park with a million bites, heavily prepare your skin.
