    how about a fumigator ? They used to go through the city spraying a fog/mist off the back of a pickup, I wonder if there's a size made like a backpack?

    Repel makes a wipe with 30% deet. Works like a charm. Was out in the garage last week in the heat and humidity and not one bite. Goes for about 3 to 4 bucks and you get 15 in a pack. They market it to hikers and outdoorsy people.

    Bear-they use those up hear and tell you to keep windows and doors shut at night not to mention the police officers wear gas masks when they escort those trucks around.

    Surround yourself with incense-patchouli so you can smell like a hippy.

    Get yourself a big fan and have it blowing right on you, keeps you cool and blows the mosquitoes away.

    also dryer sheet... rub a couple on your skin then stick them in your pockets.













    If you think you're too small to have an impact, try going to bed with a mosquito.
