I need a new way to keep away bees and mosquitos, I am allergic to repellants, and mosquito repellants seem to attract bees. I am severly allergic to bees, and very allergic to Mosquitos. I can live through mosquito bits but it is like most people's allergies to bees. Bees I may not be able to be saved from again since I don't tollerate the Epi pen they usually give, and it is so severe. I will live with a reaction from repellant if needed, but don't know of one that doesn't attract bees, or keep them away. Anyone know anything that can keep away both, or a combination of things. I am already well covered clothes wise since I react to the sun too. I need the extra for what can get through clothes, or in a location. Please any ideas are worth checking into.

bees love beer..This is one of the greatest home remedies to keep them away from your home...pour beer in a bowl or several and place them in your yard away from your home, and watch the bees fly in and drown..
Mosquitoes, try citronella candles, and I mean the big ones, try some "Skin so soft " from Avon...Mosquitoes are attracted to heat and bees are attracted to sweet scents, so you also may want to try a new perfume.

Emu oil is a natural bug repellant and so is Patouli oil. I know you can get the Patouli at the health food store and there are some distributors that sell Emu bug repellant... I'm just not sure who they are. The patouli can also be found as an inscence that you could burn periodically through your yard.. just remember where you had it so you can pick up the remaining little stick from the inscence... or just put the oil directly on you. I've tried it and it seems to work.

We use Avon bug and mosquito repellent (bug guard). It works for us and it's worth a try for you. It also has a sunscreen in it. We like to use the disappearing blue one on my 11yr. old so she gets to see where she misses.
Good luck, check out the sites I listed about the Avon bug guard.
