When an uncle of mine was young and needed to walk across a field with a serious chigger infestation, he out kerosene on his socks and shoes as a repellent. It worked, but he got chemical burns
I am a retired airline mechanic. I have bee totally saturated with jet fuel, which is basically kerosene. My entire body became one huge blister. Hurt like hell.
Warning, annoying math geek logic incoming: SPF is actually a divisor for how much radiation reaches your skin (i.e. with SPF 20 you get 5%, 30 you get 3.3%, 50 you get 2%, etc.). So ignoring that direct sun is unlikely to ignite the fuel, the SPF should be a positive decimal less than one, such as .002)
