Hey guys, look up a peppermint spray, isnt toxic, but flying critters do not like the peppermint. If we are going to have to use the outdoors, there is a spray that repels mosquitoes you can use on the yard. Don't remember what it is, but you can literally see clouds of skeeters thick enuff to leave ground shadows hovering outside the areas- and those clouds aren't love bugs. We actually have abt 3 different breeds of skeeters here- I detest those black and white ones. I welp up like a wasp or have gotten weeping allergic reactions after scratching with my gardening fingers, chuckl. Cooler weather has them slowed down now.
