Try above [What are you looking for] on the top page. You will find many posters over many years. (Mosquitoes, Mozzies...etc).

Many "old wife tales", many with advice. many (mosquitoes) still here.

Laura Rossi citronella power, 1.50 from Consum works very well for us.

You also need the anti mosquito electric plug ins for the bedroom overnight and distributed in areas in which you may sit in the house. Also the coils which resemble incense to which one sets light so they smoulder and produce smoke which the mosquitoes find a deterrent when outside.

Also cover as much of your body as possible and any exposed part needs to be slathered with one of the many lotions available. If you suffer seriously, as I do, the only answer I am afraid is one of the chemical products and using the rest of the arsenal. Or there is a service which will spray your area every month which works like a charm, but is expensive!
