Is it my imagination, or has this been a banner year for mosquitoes...they LOVE me, I HATE them!

Mosquitoes are very sensitive to certain scents, and knowing what scents to use will keep the little buggers away from you.

Here are some things you can do, other than spraying yourself with toxic chemicals:

- Plant marigolds, catnip and rosemary in your garden

- Spritz yourself with lemon eucalyptus oil

If you do get bitten...spray hair spray over the bite. This will stop the itching.

Here are some more ideas.
