Stay Away Mosquitoes
“It REALLY works! We live in the woods and on a lake, so we have a lot of mosquitos. After applying this, We sat outside for hours last night and even though we saw and heard many mosquitos, we didn’t get one bite! I’ve tried other non-deet/natural bug repellents and they were not effective, but this one is!”

Disappointed to see the @EPA will allow use of a pesticide harmful to bees (during #PollinatorWeek nonetheless) https://t.co/WAhA9A6env
#FunFactFriday #Mosquitoes can't fly very far or very fast. Most mosquitoes can fly no more than about one to three miles, and often stay within several hundred feet of where they were hatched. The top speed for a mosquito is about 1.5 miles per hour.
#DYK Mosquitoes can smell human breath. They have receptors on their antennae that detect the carbon dioxide released when we exhale. Those plumes of CO2 rise into the air, acting as trails that the mosquitoes follow to find the source. #StayAwayMosquitoes
Body heat marks the target. Mosquitoes use heat sensors around their mouthparts to detect the warmth of your body – actually, the blood inside it – then land on you and locate the best capillaries for tapping. #StayAwayMosquitoes
Sweat helps #mosquitoes choose their victims. Our skin produces more than 340 chemical odors, and some of them smell like dinner to mosquitoes. They are fond of octenol, a chemical released in sweat, as well as cholesterol, folic acid, certain bacteria, skin lotions, and perfume.
