I was in Hospital in the UK from getting a very rare skin complaint from the Mosquito bites, it was horrendous, still left with the scars and that was in 1982!! I was prescribed Sun and given a machine much like these keyrings and it worked. As I mentioned I keep one permanently by my bed and one with me all the time, it is a falisy that they only bite at night! If there are 1000 people in a room and one mosquito it will find me, these are brilliant I personally can highly recommend, there is only one draw back the noise, you dont hear it after a while and if you could to me it is better to hear the noise than cope with the bites, depends what your priorities are. Loads of people swear by them. Some work some dont, I can only speak from experience.

I absolutely hate them. You can hear them this very high pitched whine which hurts my ears.

Finally managed to track down an Avon catalogue.

Skin so soft dry oil body spray, is that the most effective one? Looks to be two versions, one with a blue/green panel and the other is pink/red. They are labelled as 'soft and sensual' and 'soft and fresh' but the catalogue doesn't show which description matches which colour label. :confused:

i think that the "soft and fresh" is the blue one

It`s the smell the mozzies don`t like, not the texture. :rofl:

Definately the blue one!!! I wouldn't be without it - it is great stuff because it is not sticky. I have some mixed with the cologne you can buy in the supermarket and put in a spray bottle to use during the day and I use it neat to go out in the evening when the mossies are worse. You can also spray it around your door and window frames to keep the blighters out!!! I know some people spray their dogs with it in the evening..... not sure if thats to stop the mossies from biting or make their dogs smell better?????

Just got a supply of Avon SSS dry oil spray so will let you know how it works after our next hols.

I like the smell but keeping my fingers crossed that the mosquitos don't.
