[pct-l] mosquitoes and long-sleeved shirts



On the CDT in 2004, I switched from wearing a tank top to a long-sleeved white shirt in hot sections.  Everyone on the lists said the long-sleeved shirt is cooler than a tank top, and now I agree!
 
Here's the problem, though.  The long-sleeved shirt 
works fine against the mosquitoes EXCEPT for the 
top/back of my shoulders.  That's the only place 
where the shirt was always tight against my skin.  
YES, it was a tightly-woven shirt but the mosquitoes 
still went to town on my shoulders.  
 
Does anyone know of a long-sleeved white shirt which 
has reinforced shoulders (I know that sounds silly)?  
I was thinking of just having a seamstress sew an 
extra piece of SOMETHING on the shoulders of my shirt.
 
Anyone have any ideas?
