Have you tried dusting your shoes, socks and pant legs w/ sulphur?   that
usually works w/ chiggers.

I didn't last 5 minutes with the dryer sheets and I really rubbed and
rubbed. Maybe my brand is wrong (A&H) or a difference in blood or climate 
or kind of mosquito.

You will be surprised how rough the sheets are. I use the cheapest... and
it is almost like a dry exfoliation when I rub it on... but if it works it 
is great.

I will. I have plenty of them, cheap brand. I like the idea that instead 
of stinky, I will be soft and fresh!

I hope you will try the dryer sheets. I have used them for over a year.
Wipe them all over any exposed areas.... then tuck it in your bra. Last 
night I had to go get one and after I did the skeeters left me alone.

I've been using something I had in the cupboard, bought at markdown a

few
yrs ago - OFF Skintastic Tropical Fresh - until I can get to the store. 
Works well enough, though I've had to reapply.  It is 7% Deet.

Time of day isn't always a choice, but it is something to consider.

Thanks

Time of day when you work may help. Mosquitos are most active in the 
early morning and evening, so you might consider a later start and
earlier quit in the garden.

is the best to keep mosquitoes at bay?

I finally get some time to work out in the yard and here I come,
running and screaming from the hords of stinging monsters that
swarmed me after only a few seconds in the yard. I need to spend 
hours out there and I can't bear it.
What's the best stuff?
