Those are serious misquitoes when you have to use a bat on them. Sam

Never been to Wisconsin, have you Sam...

Up here, in Kanuckistan, I was riding a horse one day and a mosquito bit
the horse in the ass. By the time the mosquito was done sucking the
horse's blood, my feet were dragging on the ground.

If their bite don't get you, a slap from one their wings will.

Up here, they suggest that you don't build a dock for your boat, because
the mosquitos will use it as a landing strip.

A bat?

Lucky you!

There are plenty of mosquitoes around my area, but I don't get bit
much, if ever- even when working outside. I sort of keep track of it,
just because it seems a little wierd, and here's what I came up with-
changing your diet will help, a lot. When I used to eat a lot of
fast-food and drink sugared sodas, I'd get eaten up like I was an
insect buffet table. In the past several years, I've taken to making
lunches at home, and switched to diet soda or water, and the insects
bites have all but ceased. I still eat a lot of fat and carbs- just
little or no sugar, and it seems to do the trick for me, anyhow.
Maybe those skeeters just have a sweet tooth...

Yes. I lived outside Nelson, Wis. on the edge of the Nelson Bottoms,
where the Chippewa River joins the Mississippi. Misquitoes 24 hrs. a
day from May to October. At night the woods actually hummed. We bought
the large cans of OFF by the case, you couldn't go outside without it.

Sounds perfectly lovely.

I think bats are quite a bit more effective.

How many swings does it take to wipe out each mosquito? g

Any suggestions on how to repel them other than Off! or similar
products. I just don't like putting chemicals on my skin unless
absolutely necessary.

How can I kick some mosquito butt?

Thanks!

G'day all,
If we had a mossie problem I reckon I'd just stand the Missus outside
the shed door. The little buggers love her and leave me totally alone.
LOL

Seriously, When having a BBQ, during mossie time, I usually light half a
doz repellent sticks. Like humongous insence sticks, they do the job.

Permethrin, available under many brand names, both repels and kills
mosquitoes and is not very toxic to vertebrates.

I only saw one reply that refered to products such as shown in the
link I'm including. I installed one this summer in my 24'x24' garage
and I'm skeeter free until about 10pm and then I close the main door.

I use a single Konk BTV dispenser in the garage and it seem to work
just fine. I have no connection with this company but I do know that
the products are quite common further north in Canada and on farms
throughout Canada.
