Thanks for the information. For those who cannot use DEET sprays (such as myself) Common Sense Homesteading has recipes for natural Mosquito Repellent as well as Common Sense and How to avoid mosquito problems. One thing I would avoid, she suggests using Vodka as a carrier. Stick to rubbing alcohol or Witch Hazel for your carrier (if you decide o use it.)
One thing not mentioned, that I personally found helps me, add more garlic to your diet. If you have Opal Leaf Basil (Also known as Purple Leaf Basil, Dark Opal Basil, Ocimum basilicum, Sweet Basil)throw a stalk on the coals when you grill outside. *Discovered by accident, when I wanted to add a basil flavor to the smoke.*

Citronella Candles are your friend. Use them.
Looking forward to this.
