I was using Muskol while in Roatan. Didn't seem to be doing a thing. I
switched to Deep Woods Off and that seemed to work somewhat better. I can't
explain it since they both have the same amount of DEET.
And for the record, I don't have Roatan malaria (at least not yet that I'm
aware of). I did bring home some nasty Roatan cold/flu thing that was going
around. There have been some complications since then but now I'm taking
supermeds that make me sick as they cure my other symptoms.
