      See is the oily texture they do not like. I used Non-stick cooking spray & sprayed it in a puddle in my hand & skiffed it across my naked arms, legs, neck, ears, etc... I promise they don't ł like oily 😂!❤❤

    That's right, it'll work.
    Actually, I have so much mint growing at the edge of my yard from an accidental drop off a mint plant a couple years ago that lines the edge of my yard. It's a forest of it. Anyway, I just clip off some, rub it hard between my hands and wipe that oil all over me. That, with using that Dr Bronners peppermint soap I was telling you about, and those little guys come nowhere near me! 😊

      @@TheScaredyCatGardener Oh yeah, one more thing. Get the bigger bottle that has the lable. It's really small print and hard for this 57 year old to read, but it's entertaining. You'd like it. Plus, you could make so many videos on what you can do with it. It's miracle soap 🙂. Heck, I haven't washed my hair with anything but that in 25 years (and I still have a full head of hair 😁)

    A older widow woman in our church used to play outside games with a group of people & she sd the mosquitos NEVER bothered her so I purposed to observe her preparing herself before we went out to play 1 time after she said that. She went over to the cabinet took out her cooking oil, poured a sm puddle in her hand and applied it lightly across her naked parts of skin as if applying lotion. I thought wonder if Non Stick cooking spray will work ?... So After I got home, and on another day I needed to be outside.. I tried it... it works GREAT!!
    Mosquitos do not like oily skin.
