mosquito repellent of the natural variety

June 27th, 2008

I love to go camping. I love that it gets dark enough outside that I can see the stars.  I love that there is peace and quiet, and I love to go hiking and exploring on the trails.  However, there is one thing that I don’t really like about camping – mosquitoes.  Now, one of the easiest ways to minimize the impact of mosquitoes is to go camping in the late fall after the first freeze or to go camping in early spring before the mosquitoes are out in full force.  And then there’s always winter camping, but I find that to be too cold for my tastes.  So when you are out camping and you want to keep the mosquitoes away, what do you do.  I know that most people just spray those chemically laced sprays on their bodies, but I prefer to put a natural mosquito repellent on my body instead since I’m trying to be more environmentally friendly and more friendly to my body.
