Mosquito
It is such a wonderful feeling when the warmer weather approaches. You can pull out your swimsuit, sunscreen, baseball glove, tent, boat, and barbecue. However, along with all those fun-in-the-summer activities comes the annoying buzz of pesky mosquitoes!
The appearance of these seasonal pests usually has people running for the insect repellent, but before immersing yourself in a cloud of strong-smelling chemicals, did you know that there are certain natural oils and foods that can act as an insect repellent? The lasting power of natural mosquito repellent may not be as long as those repellents that contain DEET or other such chemicals, but their repellent qualities are a safer choice, and that in itself is worth the extra effort involved in more frequent application.
