I received an email that said original formula Listerine (the yellow stuff) in a spray bottle would repel mosquitoes. I've been using for a few weeks and, though my time sample is too insufficient to proclaim unmitigated success, it's worked well so far. Broadcast spraying in an outdoor area seems to cause the pests to vacate the premises.
Every time I venture out now in early morning or in the evening, I carry a spray bottle with me. My kids say it reminds them of the omnipresent Windex used by the bride's family in My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Consequently, it's good for a measure of comic, as well as insect, relief.
proudnole, I heard about Listerine as a repellent from someone recently and completely forgot about it (happens a lot these days). Thanks for the reminder to give it a try!
