Does anyone know of anything that prevents skeeters from biting a person over and over again? is there an herb mixture or something to stop the itching?

I am one of those people that gets bitten to death, and I use Burt's Bees Herbal Insect Repellant, and it takes care of my bug issues for a least the first few hours of being outside. I get it at the health food store for about $5 - the bottle lasts for a whole season.

I know there are tons of home remedies so you might want to look some up online. Some have worked for me when others have not. I am a skeeters best food says my friends who of course are never bitten.

There are plenty of different remedies that work, but everyone is different so you will have to see what works best for you.

Citronella plants

grow a citronella plant. When ready, break off leaves and crush by rubbing all over pants arms and legs hair too.

The oil from teh citronella plant works really well. I fyou dry it and crush to a dust adn dust the backs of your pets it repels fleas too.

If you find out where they are gathering and breeidng, standiong water areas you can get rid of them.
