Ok everyone...we will be attending a long awaited wedding this weekend. We are super excited! SO I will not be on here tomorrow...I will be back Monday! Here is my Friday post. Hope it to your benefit! TGIF!!! So SUMMER is right around the corner. And if you havent yet had the privilege of being eaten alive by those wonderful blood sucking deviants aka mosquitos we all love so much well Im sure it will be coming soon. Here are 5 home remedies to help keep you off the menu. Home remedies: Mentholated chest rub Avon Skin-So-Soft Fragrances: Citronella: Light a citronella candle. Vanilla: It is said that pure vanilla repels mosquitoes and smells good too! Beware, however, the vanilla extract that you get off your grocer’s shelves may not be strong enough. Plants/Herbs: Marigolds and basil are two plants that mosquitoes avoid. Plant these orange and yellow flowers around your yard and around your patio to keep mosquitoes at bay. Lemongrass is a lovely smelling herb that is not so mosquito friendly. You can snip the leaves on these herbs and pop them into a clean stocking or net bag and carry them on your person to repel the mosquitoes.
