What is your take on this? Is it safe? I was damn effective.

Going to fiordland next week for hunting and I bought small can of flyspray i can take in my funny pack but the other hunters are not entirely sure / happy with the prostpect.

should be fine if just confined to spraying on hair but meat safe much bettter - small portable ones work really well - most will take 3-4 deer -or 6-8 hindquarters -just be careful with the zips - some are very light and flimsy and can catch and rip the delicate cloth mesh - and wash carefully in dish washing liquid when home -dry well
