Default Mozzies in Melly!

Hi Everyone
Just a question about mosquitoes - as we have just returned from Greece with my husband looking like a dart board (48 mosquito bites!) just wondered if there are any problems people have had with mosquitoes in Melbourne
Cheers Nibblo

Plenty of repallants from the chemist that supposedly work, creams, sprays, rubs etc. If your sitting outside on your patio at night theres Anti Mozzie candles etc that you can burn.
