by the way, i saw a guy who wore red color t-shirt while walking in the rainforest and the back of him around the shirt, lots of mosquitoes following him ... does anyone here had the same experience ?

Thank you! I won't forget your advice. I will try them in the field.
As I love scuba diving and WAS a casual birder, so I've never gone deep into rainforest. I was at a loss what to wear. Well now that I got some advice here, I'll give it a try to both leather boots and rubber boots.

They bite.
And that has to be the understatement of the year. I hate Black flies, the bite hurts and it is extremely itchy, enough to drive you insane. If you scratch too much, you can become quite ill.
