    scratch!

    ahhhhhhhh....
    Try living in Panama. Every time I get bit I wonder if it is Yellow Fever or worse, Malaria.

            You may not like this but I've tried garlic suppliments and the garlic seems to keep them away. The down side is, you smell

                PLEASE Elli, don't do this!

                I don't want a smelly Elli!!!

                I am actually wearing a t-shirt right now that reads:

                Keep Elli not smelly!

                    the wonderful thing about the desert, even though I live in a community with 5 lakes, is that flying insects dehydrate and die so fast that you hardly ever see any. I havent seen a mosquito in a year and a half.

                        The "x" thing SO does not work. I think it's based on the pain principle - distract the brain with a different pain, so you forget to itch.

                        Garlic supplements, hm? interesting.

                        BigG, that is quite the cab fare. I'm sure you have better things to do with your money

                            Perhaps you underestimate my "desire" for your company? I would pay for a private plane to deliver you (and your super cute face) to me!

                            But PLEASE do not do the garlic thing. I don't want a smelly Elli!!!!


                            You are hot and don't you forget it!!!!!!!!!

                                hehe sorry, BigG, but I have a feeling my man doesn't like to take sharing to that extent.

                                        I wonder about putting on sunblock and repellent. Which should you put on first? Or do they counteract each other's effectiveness at all?

                                                    eucalyptus oil is the best, but second best is mint toothpaste.

                                                    both work good and stop itching.

                                                                I'm really allergic so my bites are always awful. I haven't found anything that works, but I'm willing to try the things in this thread.

                                                                One thing that keeps them away when you're out on your patio is to plug in an oscillating fan. They don't like the moving air and will stay away. I read that you can put the fan out there for an hour or so before a BBQ and the mosquitos will stay gone while you're out there. I haven't done that, but I have put the fan outside and it does seem to keep them away.

                                                                Now I have to go because this thread is making me itch!
