I hate the summer because I become a feeding station for mosquitos! I stopped using hairspray, perfumes, etc. and yet they still love my sweet skin! I don't want to walk around with OFF as my perfume, but I hate those red bumps! Boy do they itch!! Ahh!

Paint your whole body in liquid latex (pick a colour you like.....maybe a bright purple). I'd love to see a mosquito get through that. ;)

Mosquitos normally come in the night say after 6:30 pm. So close all your windows at that time. And keep them closed till you sleep. I mean, before you switch off your lights when you are about to sleep, open the windows. Mosquitos get drawn to light sources, so if you have a light on you will see them coming from the window. Now try this, it works for me

Get a bug spray that containd DET and spray away. Don't worry about harmfull side effects because the small % of DET is not enough to harm you but it will keep the mosquito's and any other bug far, far away. It's the best stuff ever.

After your shower and before you dry off, use Avon Skin So Soft Bath Oil. It's really good at keeping the bugs off...and it comes in different scents, so just choose the one that you like.

Go to a drug store / pharmacist / whatever you called where medicines are sold and ask the clerk for some Spray or Lotion to prevent such bytes. It's harmless nor has any insecticide.

I hear you should use Bounce fabric sheets.. just tie one to your belt loop- or anywhere (It doesn't have to be visible) but something about the detergent or smell repells them..
(not only them, but bees and other insects as well.. this also work for repelling mice!)
