Mosquito repellents

Post by Daffy » April 25th, 2005, 1:53 am

Anyone use those new fangled Mosquito Deleto systems?

There are several different models.

I just like natural herbs, like mint and others to do the job!

My can of OFF! circa 1998 does not work worth a crap. If you have the chance to buy some 1998 OFF! just keep on walkin'. That stuff is total crap.

Well there are some natural plants which will keep "bugs" in general away, Skunk Cabbage, rubbing moss on your skin,poison ivy will keep the bugs away(but you trade iching reasons with it). You can also use thing like light colored clothes, dark colored clothes absorb sun light and retain the warmth longer after dark and Mosquitos are attracked to body heat as well as oders. Do not wear after shave or cologne when going to outdoor functions.

I heard they were atracted to CO2, if thats true, if you stop breathing that will fool the he11 out of them.
