| A friend of mine said to spray the grass with equal amounts of cheap beer, Epsom salt, and cheap mouthwash. She claims it works, but I haven't tried it yet. Right now the mosquitoes are really bad. ~Joanne~

| They crawl up onto you from the ground. I spray around my ankles and never have trouble. They LOVE to go into any cracks on your body or under your panty elastic or bra line. Ugh! Sticking your arms into tall grass also spells trouble. ~Joanne~
