Sounds like that's the best for him right now.

I'd rather use one of these bug sprays that shoots out some feet away

I don't recall too much of my grandmother's cooking except Thanksgiving
dinners, the meal we'd have the night we got there (a casserole she
called "Glop") and English muffin "pizzas" with Scooter Pies for a lunch
while we were there. Sunday dinner was "fancy" but as I recall, it was a
hunk of meat, potatoes and a vegetable, maybe two. Not hard to see where
my mom got her cooking "abilities" from.
