Hello! I am a college student currently in need of your insights on urination devices that hikers use to urinate during their hikes. Answering these questions would greatly help me, especially since I do not have direct access to hikers other than through this channel. This is for an activity which tasks us to make or innovative a portable urinal or urinal device.

Questions(SPECIFY IF YOU ARE A Male or Female Hiker):

1. Is using a portable urinal or urinal device a hassle for you? If yes, what do you use and why? If not, why?
2. If you would be or are using a portable urinal device or urinal, do you prefer standing or squatting? Why?
3. Are there circumstances where it's hard for you to find a place to urinate conveniently, especially when considering privacy? What do you usually do if you are in these situations?
4. What suggestions or features would you like to have in current urination devices (available or owned) that you believe would fit your needs?

Tick repellent?

Im the same with ticks like people are with spiders. I freak the hell out.

I miss hiking, but can't handle the ticks.

Looking for repellant that actually works-- any suggestions??
