People who consume garlic on a regular basis rarely get bitten by mosquitoes. If you do not like eating garlic, there are garlic tablets available.
If you have a mosquito problem in/around your home, try to locate any standing water and remove it. If you do have standing water, spray some oil on the surface to kill the larvae and pupaes.
The next time you BBQ outside, put some sage on the grill - it keeps all flying insects away.

Hi,
This is on the site I just posted: "I'd like to share This Information......"
Here's what was said about mosquitoes;
MOSQUITOES
CO2 may attract mosquitoes away from animals and people. Place pieces of Dry Ice away from areas where people are congregating. The theory is that mosquitoes find animals and people by their CO2 exhaled during breathing. Melissa Palm reports that dry ice does attract mosquitoes. "I use dry ice in some of my mosquito traps as bait and find that it works rather well." The Clarke Family of Companies of Roselle IL., sells a mosquito trap designed for using Dry Ice
Hope this helps,
Dave

I don't think so. Mosquito repellents don't act like bug spray. They're not poison to insects. Some repellents work my making your skin harder to sense, sort of like making you invisible to them. Other types of repellents work by using scents that mosquitoes naturally hate, making them avoid you. If you did manage to spray a mosquito with the bug spray its wings would get too wet and heavy to move and it wouldn't really like it. You could probably just squash it then.

The best repellent I have found is a product called "Skin So Soft" by Avon products. It has worked for me continuously during the previous years. A large bottle is quite inexpensive compared to other products.
I hope you will try and purchase a bottle. You can apply each morning before going outside and avoid those pesky little critters that love to bite you.
Best wishes.

Use a mosquito net!
The rest are all poisons that do more harm to you than to the mosquitoes who have gone immune to them by now.

Mosquitos hate pine sol. Also, you can always try ordering Gardening Pesticides- ofcourse don't put it on you, just put in corners of home or wherever- far away from your skin!

around the house, plant some citronella, at night or when mosquitos come out : water the citronella plants, not only it will get the insects away, you will have a very pleasant smell.

I tried this in the tropics (Chiapas, Mexico) that is garlic pills, nobody would like to be near you, including mosquitoes... (your blood must be very sweet).

You can get rid of mosquitoes by using pest control.
