A good natural insect repellent is Penny-royal....it will take care of about any pest including humans I might add...don't let your cat or dog lick you however, it is toxic to the canine and feline populous

Peppermint oil. Best wishes

Avon Skin so Soft

i have heard that dryer sheets do the job. Worth a try, i guess

citronella oil

Lavendar oil works.

I hear banana peels rubbed on the skin keeps mosquitoes away.

Now I am not making a joke here. The facts are that eating bananas will repel insects. It takes about an hour for the effect to take place and one banana is enough to cause the effect.

one does not produce you allergy.

Citronella

Avon skin so soft works very well. I buy several bottles a year

I've always heard eating tons of garlic helps. Even garlic pills help. Best of luck! The mosquitoes here carry us away!

There are natural products sold at www.kapipenya.com that are supposed to repel insects, but because of the danger in contracting West Nile Virus from mosquitoes, it is necessary to use a product containing DEET to completely protect yourself and your family.Natural products do not contain DEET.
There is a device called "Mosquito Ultrasonic Repeller". It is battery operated and you can wear it around your neck or hang it on your porch. The ultrasonic sound is supposed to deter insects.
I understand your reluctance in using DEET, but it is certainly the lessor evil if there are reports of West Nile Virus in your area.
Good luck !

I used to wear patchouli oil on a daily basis as a perfume, and during that time I never had bug bites, ticks (I was an avid hiker), mosquito bites, etc.

The company "Burt's Bees" makes an excellent all natural insect repellent. I go camping a lot, so trust me, it works. It's main ingredient is Citronella oil.
