Use s strong enough repellent but also don't stand in one spot to get bitten. If u move around it really shouldn't be a prob. Wear long sleeves and pant. If mosquito still maybe go inside is the best bet.

Mosquitoes locate their victims primarily through scent. They are extremely sensitive to the carbon dioxide in exhaled breath, as well as several substances found in sweat. They can also detect heat, so they can find their target very easily once they get close enough. Often the best "repellent" is a fan or gentle breeze as mosquitoes do not like moving air.

Nothing works good enough. Those repellants, and candles aren't "repelling" anything. They just make you "invisible" to a mosquito's senses. If they happen to get lucky and land on you.... you bet they WILL bite you.
Those repellants work like this. Imagine you are trying to find your friends house but he sprayed repellant on it. All that happened is the repellant made his house invisible. It's still there, you just can't see it. And hell, you MIGHT EVEN get lucky and accidentally run into with your car.... see how that works?

I use any major brand of repellent that is on sale or Avon Skin So Soft. Don't do as a classmate of mine did at our reunion this past summer. She is a nut on natural remedies. She went to the health food store and bought lavender extract in a little bottle to keep the bugs off her. It cost some $7. Mine cost about $3. She was the ONLY one at the reunion bothered by the bugs.

Mosquitos in many cases are available the nighttime say after 6:30 pm. So close all your homestead windows at that component. And shop them closed till you sleep. I advise, earlier you turn off your lights furniture once you're approximately to sleep, open the homestead windows. Mosquitos get attracted to mild ingredients, so in case you have a mild on you will see them coming from the window. Now attempt this, it quite works for me

Seems to help if you eat alot of garlic, seems to discourage mosquitos. If you are trying to sleep at night and are getting bombarded, light a candle across the room, the pesky bugs will go to the flame and leave you alone.

Install a ceiling fan or use a desk fan. I lived for years in tropical Australia in an unscreened house without air conditioning and found that the ceiling fans were by far the best way of keeping them off.

Mosquitoes become a nuisance when they enter homes. Instead of spending money on costly pest control, you can get rid of mosquitoes by removing the food source and using soap water. I found the information at http://tinyurl.com/mdhlm useful.
