Yanno Wash..........you really don't have to worry about mosquitoes. Get ahold of your local Avon lady, and buy some Skin So Soft soap and lotion. Wash with the soap, and when going outside, apply the lotion.
You won't get bit in the least. There's something in the formula that is a really good bug repellent and mosquitoes hate it.
Learned that trick in the Navy from a Marine I was stationed with.
you're right, i've been using it since the seventies (vermont and maine and canada summer woods) it's a great simple solution that still holds up. hey, thanks for your service to our country ABS, Awesome.
Happy to serve. Where else can you get paid to travel to 26 different countries and 49 different states? If you appreciate my service, please remember to vote this year, it's why I served.
By the way, another old wives remedy for stuff like ticks, chiggers and mosquitoes is to eat 2 eggs every breakfast during the bug season. My Grandmother swore by it, saying that the sulfur in the egg yolk gets into your bloodstream and it makes you unappealing to the bugs. And, to tell you the truth, it seemed to work when I was growing up. Won't work if you don't include the yokes though.
