Everything you need to know about Scottish midges
A Scottish midge, also known as the Highland menace, has ruined the ideal holiday for many unprepared travellers that underestimate this tiny little insect and what it can do. The Co2 from your breath, your sweat and your body scent attracts midges from a large distance. Their bites are very itchy and their constant buzzing, as well as relentless crawling over your skin, makes you feel like you’re in a living nightmare. Regardless of this, people have been living, still, live and travelling in midge-infested places. Understanding this little bloodsucking creature and its habits will help you to coexist and plan a successful holiday in the wilderness.
