Good Bye mosquitos....

This just came in my email. I also just read that Tea Tree Oil is a good deterrent. Mosquitos don't like it and if you've rubbed it on your body somewhere they'll stay away.

Mosquito Spray...Worth a try

I was at a deck party awhile back, and the bugs were having a ball biting everyone.

A man at the party sprayed the lawn and deck floor with Listerine, and the little

Demons disappeared.

The next year I filled a 4-ounce spray bottle and used it around My seat whenever I saw mosquitoes. And voila! That worked as well. It worked at a Picnic where we sprayed the area around the food table, the children's swing area,

And the standing water nearby. During the summer, I don't leave home without it.....Pass it on.

OUR FRIEND'S COMMENTS:

I tried this on my deck and around all of my doors. It works - in fact, it killed them instantly. I bought my bottle from Target and it cost Me $1.89. It really doesn't take much, and it is a big bottle, too; so it is not as expensive to use as the can of Bug-spray you buy that doesn't last 30 minutes. So, try this, please. It will last a couple of days.

Don't spray directly on a wood door (like your front door), but spray around the frame. Spray around the window frames, and even inside the dog house.

Good to know Marsha and thanks. My Dad told me that there are no mosquitos around here

and boy was he wrong!! A few weeks ago while Woofus and I spotted our first sighting of an armadillo around 9:00 pm, I got eaten alive (as usual). I later questioned him and he said he doesn't go "out" at night - well, go figure! I stay clear of walking around late at night but thanks so much for the tips Marsha!

 
Yup, no mosquitos here! Just fill your pool w/Off & deet, get a snorkel and stay on the bottom.

 
I just mistook my bug spray for

"Lysol for kitchens" and I can tell you - it does not work at all (14 bites/welts on my arms later!), but I don't smell like fried fish...

 
You need to find a sacrificial goat like me! That's one of the reasons Larry keeps me around...

Mosquitoes are attracted to the carbon dioxide given off by people, but individuals give off different amounts.

Larry can be butt naked and I can be swathed in clothing from head to foot and they will STILL find and bite me instead of him. Apparently I give off beau-coupe amounts of CO2.

Al Gore is trying to have me declared an environmental hazard to the ozone and taxed for my excessive carbon footprint.
