Don't get me wrong; if you or anyone else could help with this problem I'd be more then happy to say I'm wrong. If I had lots of money I would say send your crew up here and I would pay them to work around my house. About two days they would be packing up and heading out.

I would like to be wrong but like I said I’ve been dealing with these Mosquitoes for 13 years at our current home. I’ve tried everything people have suggested. Some people would swear by fabric softener sheets, they say to put them in your shirt pocket and they will repel the Mosquitoes but they didn’t. I’ve used mineral oil, skin so soft, the only thing that dose is that it makes it harder for the Mosquitoes to pierce the skin because the oil is slick. I do not doubt that you have Mosquitoes where you live, but these will make you swear like crazy. If anyone would come up with a sure fire way of repelling Mosquitoes with out DEET they would get rich real quick. I would be the first in line to buy a case, quart, or gallon. Or whatever it would come in.

I wish I were wrong when I can’t get outside without getting eaten up.

If it works for you great, I wish it would work here but it doesn’t.

This site talks about skin so soft, and other home remidies.
