We should have bathed in it at the beach. The mosquitoes were tough right before dark.

I have use it before and it works. I haven't really sprayed it on me thought. Usually spray it in the back porch around my sitting area. I am a Listerine fan thought.

I've not heard of that one before. Glad it's working so far. I definitely don't like mosquitoes. Anyone know anything good about them?

I haven't heard of using Listerine for mosquitos......but I've heard of carrying a fabric softner sheet in your pocket........I don't remember if it worked but I have tried it. I'm going to have to remember to use the Listerine!!!

Scott and I ended up buying a "Mosquito Magnet" trap because the mosquitos are terrible this year. It's supposed to be the worst year in decades and the provincial government is putting up money for spraying across the province. Earlier this summer, we couldn't go out AT ALL without 10 or 20 mosquito bites in the first 5 minutes. Mosquito spray would work for an hour or so, but we couldn't have Layla with us because she can't even feel if she's getting bit. The mosquito trap made a huge difference! It's supposed to be good for a half acre and we don't have many around now. We caught hundreds in the first couple of weeks and they've been dwindling. Soon, the type of mosquitos that carry West Nile will be out so I'm glad we got this ahead of time!

We have one of those too - that we use when camping by the river. We don't use it here as it is too hot to be out for very long anyway; hence, the listerine spray!
