Mosquito Repellent

I'm gonna try that this summer. And I bet it'll work too- coming from a fellow Iowan!

 

Gonna have to look at the ingredients and see what makes it ticks, I mean mosquito.

 

Used a lot of stuff. But the best is ThermaCELL Mosquito Repellent
Turn it on and the bugs are gone.
http://www.mosquitorepellent.com/ WE use it camping and in the boat. And within a 15 ft circle it takes care of the Mosquito's.\
But I sure thank you for this post. I will give it a try. May have to mix up 15 gallons and spray the whole camp site.:cool2:

Thanks I will try that this year.

 

I got this "recipe" in an email from my neighbor. I looking forward to trying it out this summer. I hate them little buggers.

 

I haven't ever heard of or tried the Listerine. I agree with Pete, the best I have ever used it the ThermaCell units. :big_smile:

 

I will have to 3rd or 4th(whatever number we are at) the thermacell.
It works great and you do not have to spray the crap all over yourself.

 

Which brings up another very good point. It may just be me but how does everyone else's success rate end up if your not careful to keep smells like bug spray off your hands? I know it has killed a good bite for me in the past, at least until I figured out the issue.:sad2::crazy:oooh:

 

Dear Brother Gordhawk;
Glenn I've NOT heard of the Listerine idea but you can bet when the season gets here that I WILL give it a try! "Thank You for sharing":big_smile:
If it works as good as you say it does then I will remember it and put it in my notes so I will have the information available the next time I teach an Outdoor Survival Class!
"THX Again"

I learned a long time ago that suntan lotion and bug spray to two quick and effective ways of turn the bite completely off. If you are fishing with luers and end up getting something like bull frog sun block on them you need to wash the lure with soap and water to get it off because that stuff is pretty good about being waterproof.

I've can't say for sure if it'll effect catfish but I am certain that speckled trout and redfish don't like the taste of bullfrog or deepwoods off.

 

it is getting pretty warm out here so i am going to pick up one of the thermacell things for this weekend. the Skeeters out here are already buzzing around at dusk so i will let you know how they work for me.

 

I'll have to try that one. Haven't heard of it. I have used the Bounty dryer sheets. Tuck one in your pocket. It definitely helps!

I also have used the little citronella coils. Put one around each of my ankles and those do pretty good too. They are like the coil keychains and stretch and last months.

 

Our experiences were while catfishing and I think it killed the bite. I made a new thread so not to get off subject here. :big_smile:

 

Thanks for the Listerine idea. Will give it a try. Appreciated

 

I'll have to try spraying Listern in my back yard. Early evening the Skeeters will eat you up back there.

 

Thanks, ill gave to give that a try. Though I just bought a thermacell like `10 minutes ago.

 

The Marines use Skin so Soft the orginal formula the clear stuff.My wifes family is all Marines and that's how I found out about it.But get the suff without the scents added. i use it alot it really works.oooh:

 

THKS WE WILL TRY IT ALSO THIS SUMMER

 

That's all of us combined:wink:
