If i rolled out the swag (Southern Cross dome swag with good mesh) in the boat over night, would I get smashed by sand flies?

I can feel a Boona weekend coming on......
mate you'll be fine, especially if you go somewhere where there is a little breeze . also you can get mozzie coils that come ina a little tin that you can use to quite good effect. maybe just keep it away from your fuel...

We camped in the mid straits last weekend for two nights. Yeap, there were sandflies. I sleeped in a swag with a mesh front and Mark used a swag similar to yours. Both of us had no issues. We used either bushmans or a brew of baby oil, dettol and metho in a 1/1/1 mix. I had no issues with sandfly bights overnight and Mark came through fairly well also. We were camped on the bank amoungst the mangroves.

Now, I'm not saying we should invoke capital punishment for Stupidity, but how about we just take all the warning labels off everything and let nature sort itself out?
Been tossing the idea of another overnighter up there somewhere, maybe Woody or one of the islands up the Straights
