Hi, friends!

I know that this question is REALLY off topic, so don't blast me too
much...


My mom is going to have a garden party this weekend.  How does one keep
flies and mosquitoes at bay?  I don't want them on the guests nor the food.

My nephew has a job where he works outside all day.  He says that he and
his crew wear dryer sheets pinned on their backs and they swear it keeps
mosquitos away.  Since I don't have the desire to hang Downy sheets all
over the garden, and I don't think the guests would necessarily like to
wear them, I'm searching for alternatives.  Especially to keep the flies
off of the food!  (why is it that Martha Stewart doesn't have flies?)

Responses off list requested, unless there are others interested in this
topic, too.
