It's not so bad around our house, but where I play golf is just BRUTAL!! You want to stay in the sunlight as much as possible and you pray for a wind. Because if you venture off into the shade or near a water hazard you are eaten alive. The week before we left for Miami I had finished a round of golf and I counted 32 bites on me!! For some reason, the good Lord above made me a natural mosquito attractor. Now the other thing you have to understand is that unfortunately I am EXTREMELY allergic to mosquito bites. I swell up, I look like a balloon sculpture, it's not pretty. I tried all the different types of repellent. I tried the all natural stuff with citronella and some new agent. The crap with lemon eucalyptus. That stuff sucked!! I think the mosquitoes liked me more. No my friends, I'm sad to say that the stuff that works the best is still the old standard, 29% DEET Deep Woods OFF!!! So if I grow a third arm or eye in the back of my head, so be it. I hate those bloodsuckers!!!
I checked out tomorrow's mosquito report and here it is:
Thankfully, it's not too bad. Two weeks ago the bar chart was at "Very High" from 4-8pm. Right smack in the middle of JP's golf league.

The skeeters love ya because you're so sweet.
(Hope this comment doesn't make your other readers gag.)
*gagging*
I used to get some stuff from OFF that was 100% DEET! I loved it. It worked great. It disolved most plastics like hot water on cotton candy.
Unfortunately I haven't been able to find it recently.
I am exactly the same way. Allergic and all swelled up with bites. It is terrible. And itchy.
I have heard that the mosquitos love the scent of Taco Bell!!!
Ha ha! Good one, Anonymous!
That's just mean Anon. However, I bet if *I were to state that I had this problem, then Character Builder would tell me to drink about 8 Lemon Drops and they'd leave me alone.

And Sharkey's comment only made me throw up a tiny bit. Mostly because that I know that J.P. IS so sweet. I'm talking from a personality point of view, not because I licked his skin when we were in Florida.
sharkey Thanks Baby!! ILY2!!
oddmix 100% DEET? You can do that legally? Sounds like one of those things that they thought was a good idea at the time until the long term test results came back....
