Not that this is very practical, but I was told by someone recently that mosquitoes are initially attracted to the carbon dioxide that we all exhale. Some people apparently exhale more than others&they went on to tell me that a sure-fire method to send the little biters somewhere else would be to put a bucket of dry ice in a corner away from the humans since supposedly it produces carbon dioxide as it evaporates. Theyre supposed to freeze & fall dead into the bucket. I have no proof that this is real, not having tried it myself yet&

i had read an article in the "prevention" mag., stating that taking a good
amount of vitamin b-3 would repell the critters. so, i loaded us all with
b-3 for about a week before we went. 5 days in the wild and not one bite
till the last day. and that was only because dad forgot to pack the b-3, and
it was wearing off.
Okay, b-3, so far, and garlic, and permethrin. I'll try them all, and keep those suggestions coming, please! Thanks for the input so far. Any advice for the Raccoons?
