Just a Few Mosquito Tips

Hello fellow RVer's,
Just a few tips to naturally help with those pests of summer.

1: Take garlic tablets. Garlic is very toxic to these soft bodied pests. mosquitoes, ticks, even spiders.

2. Spray around your yard with a mixture of bleach and vinegar.

3. You can spray yourself with a vinegar/water mixture or if brave, rub some diluted garlic oil on your exposed skin. (not sure about that)

Mosquitoes do not like vinegar. We get them bad at Diamond lake, but one thing I am going to try is : my windows need washed but I am going to wait until I get to the lake and wash my outside windows with vinegar and water, which leaves them sparkling clean and now may help keep mosquitoes from coming through the screens and may even help keep them from the yard. I am up for trying anything within reason to keep them away.
