Mosquitos Suck

[ed1066]

Skin So Soft does seem to work. We put it on our kids, especially my 7 year old, as she gets a bad reaction to mosquito bites. I personally hate the filthy buggers and often wonder why the Lord in His infinite wisdom saw fit to create them, except as a punishment to mankind. DEET is not good long-term, it's not as bad as DDT but the derivitive chemicals are similar. DEET products are better sprayed on your clothes rather than right on your skin. My personal remedy is to drink enough alcohol that it oozes from my pores and keeps the bugs away. YMMV...

2 years ago I thought it would be cool to live next to the river. When it over flows it leaves these pools of water that breed mosquitoes but the millions.

I seem to be pretty sensitive to them. Spend my summers waking up scratching.

I should try and find something that will relieve them.

I ordered more Skin So Soft from Avon. It's currently half price, $6.99. Thus far it works for me.

I got owned by mosquitos last night. Thankfully I have to willpower not to scratch and the bumps subside within the day.
