Lets not forget mother natures own
controls on the pesky bugs. Put up
a purple martin house or two. There is
also a huge benifit to those bat nests
as well. They eat like twice their own
weight in a couple of days. Thats a lot
of skeets!!

You can also check out the Buzz Off suits at:

It's very handy for those short trips out in the yard when you don't want to douse yourself in bug spray.

I use it all the time now for dog training sessions.

Very handy

Tumbleweed, its a myth promoted by the sellers of martin bird houses that they eat lots of mosquitoes. Martins feed high in the air during the day while mosquitoes come out at night close to the ground. Not badmouthing martins, I have 3 houses and 44 nesting pairs of martins, just correcting a myth. Bats and bat houses would be a far better bet at mosquito control.

Jay the Mosquito Buster would be sweet attached to my dock. Looks like its mounted on its own section of dock, does that come with the Buster?

Leila's been using the Buzz Off jacket while working in the garden when the skeeters are out and just loves it.

hawkeye43, I have a pair of FieldMaster Much Boots and they're the most comfortable footwear I own. They fit like a glove with absolutely no foot slop yet slide on and off your feet easily. Light weight and your foot is in a cushion of CR flex-foam.
Normally it doesn't take much pressure on the outside of my feet till they start to ache so I was leery at first about the glove fit but no worries there.
Mine are rated to -20 and they do make a Adult Arctic Sport thats rated to -40.
100% waterproof too. I'm looking forward to that slushy ice this winter.

Here's a tip that was given at a recent gardening forum. Put some water in a white dinner plate and add a couple drops of Lemon Fresh Joy dish detergent. Set the dish on your porch, patio, or other outdoor area. Not sure what attracts them, the lemon smell, the white plate color, or what, but mosquitoes flock to it, and drop dead shortly after drinking the Lemon Fresh Joy/water mixture, and usually within about 10 feet of the plate. Check this out---it works just super! May seem trivial, but it may help control mosquitoes around your home, especially in the South and elsewhere where the West Nile virus is reaching epidemic proportions in mosquitoes, birds, and humans.
