It's Worth A Try !
I got this as an email~thought I'd share it. However I don't personally know if it works. Maybe some of our JLand friends in mosquito areas can try it out and get back to us. Linda
Mosquito Spray...Worth A Try
I was at a deck party awhile back, and the bugs were having a ball biting everyone. A man at the party sprayed the lawn and deck floor with Listerine, and the little demons disappeared. The next year I filled a 4-ounce spray bottle and used it around my seat whenever I saw mosquitoes. And voila! That worked as well. It worked at a picnic where we sprayed the area around the food table, the children's swing area, and the standing water nearby. During the summer, I don't leave home without it.....
OUR FRIEND'S COMMENTS: I tried this on my deck and around all of my doors. It works - in fact, it killed them instantly. I bought my bottle from Target and it cost me $1.89. It really doesn't take much, and it is a big bottle, too; so it is not as expensive to use as the can of Bug-spray you buy that doesn't last 30 minutes. So, try this, please. It will last a couple of days. Don't spray directly on a wood door (like your front door), but spray around the frame. Spray around the window frames, and even inside the dog house.
Now these are Good Mosquitos!!!

Last year we made a trip up to OR. For the first time in years I was bit! We do not have them down here. Maybe the lack of water and the heat have something to do with it?

I might try this Linda, I`m always getting bitten and I have had some very nasty bites in the past. One year my ankles swelled up so much from the bites that I needed treatment from a doctor and I still have scars nearly ten years on.

I will definately try this, we have alot of mosquitos and in fact have had a number of west nile cases in humans and horses so this is worth it to me. Thanks for the heads up.
