Hi,

 

My O/H suffers from insect bites, we find Jungle formula with Deet works well

 

Those green spirals that burn & citronella candles/oil also good

 

Lavender & Geraniums also deter them but not practical.

 

Our 84 year old next door neighbour advocates dipping your stockings in Eau de Vie (the 60% abv stuff) as they cant hang on!

 

Bon chance

I spilled some strong repellant with deet in it on my computer and it melted the cover. Always been a bit cautious about being on my skin after that but luckily mozzies don't bother me much at all.

Never found Mozzies use my computer that much anyway...:lol:

I heard if you get bitten, run a tea spoon under a hot tap for a couple of minutes then press it on the bite. Thought that it was a load of shite but it works!!
