How to protect yourself from mosquitoes?

We can not get out here, when it comes to the bigger ones. They put them in the house, but I killed them several, but they already managed to bite me.

@Nevena83 They carry diseases, too. Be very careful and wear a mosquito repellent when possible.

@DianneN You're right. I've never thought about mosquitoes transmitting the disease.

@Nevena83 Yes, from the time I use those electric plugs I have no mosquitoes inside the house.

Does this electrical preparation help?

@LadyDuck That sounds good. Can the devices be spoiled, do I think they have a shelf life?

@Nevena83 Mosquitoes don't seem to bother me as much as they used to. Maybe it's because the bats are doing such a great job eating them! The bats are cute little Mexican fruit bats, they don't bite people and they don't look like the vampire bats we see on TV and in the movies. They just leave people alone and come out at night and spend all night eating mosquitoes!

Whaaaat? Really? Are they biting you?

@moffittjc Oh, I think my mosquito would eat your blind mice.

Is it a preparation?

@didinedhia Then I would die.

@Nevena83 no its pesticide jahaha

Vaccination against mosquitoes?

@evans777 No, I've never heard of a mosquito vaccine. Is it there in your country?

@Nevena83 I think so. Isn't there one?

I tried with that spiral before, but that did not work, but I thought I would ugusiti.

@LydiaC Oh, that's what everyone says to me, but I refuse to put the net, because I would feel like in jail.

@Nevena83 Net on windows and doors work for sure. And staying inside

@Nevena83 yes there is only 1 or 2 mosquito here, every 2 days I always clean my water.

Really? There are millions here.

@May2k8 That sounds incredible.

@Nevena83 yes I tried this method once and it works.

@skysnap I did not know that garlic could burn.

Wooow , really?

@Nevena83 no ma'am, 'tis too late to prevent such. all one could do now'd be stop the future generations 'f 'em. there's many ways to keep 'em from bitin' ya though. non-toxic ways, both fer yerself 'n the others critters. do ya 've any vanilla 'xtract? if'n so, skeeters don't like ya smellin' like a yummy cookie fer some reason. there's citronella oil, lemongrass oil 'n peppermint oil that can be mixed with the vanilla to make such stronger if'n needed (sometimes skeeters, like humans, can be most persistent, lol) - jest add a few drops 'f each oil 'nto a carrier oil (somethin' light, like sunflower) 'fore applyin' to yer skin/'r clothin'.

There are really many of them here because of the floods that we had and I do not think any preparations can help.

@crazyhorseladycx I have an eucalyptus oil, would it help?

@Nevena83 You may put some camphor around you , have heard but not sure if it is of any help.

@parpande I do not know what camphor is?

It's horrible. We have too many of them here. My legs look awful from their bites.

@Nevena83 bracelets are very common here.

I heard about necklaces carrying cats or dogs, but I did not hear about bracelets for people.

@nela13 Incredibly. I've never heard of it before, but I think that mosquitoes would bite me in the face of protection.

@Nevena83 it’s rare here

It's incredible for me to hear that some countries do not have mosquitoes.

@amandajay That's wonderful. If they continue to bite me, nothing will remain with me.

I do not use anything, but they are terribly irritating, today they ate me again.

@Nevena83 ohhh.. Please try using them

@ShifaLk I think I'll have to buy some spray.

@Nevena83 I also hate mosquitoes. These days mosquitoes are crazy.

@Moon24 Yes, Helena already has several bites on her face and body.

I hate mosquitoes. We had floods and now we have a million mosquitoes.

There are really many of them here and it gets so frustrating, because I have bites on my whole body.

How to clean mosquito area?

Oh, really? I'm jealous now. There are millions of them here, they bite me every day.

@Nevena83 I'm sorry you have so many of them.

They're out here and there are really many.

And I hate them. My legs look terrible, because mosquitoes have eaten them.

There are really many of them here because we had floods and now it's very sunny. They fly even in the heat.
