Mosquitoes ,My biggest piss off living in LOS

[Owl_ 0]

Yeah, in all my times using Listerine, three or four days in my life, I never had a mosquito bite me on the gum or tongue.

 

Ha ha! Now that's a good one!

 

Here's the truth about the use of either Lemon Fresh Joy dish washing soap or Listerine mouth wash to kill mosquitoes...

DEET is most likely the best solution to repel those pesky mosquitoes!

Dr Mick, glad to hear you enjoy life up north, rainy season started yet?

 

As far as using lemon grass, have you tried rubbing it on your skin like was posted?

The Thai lemon grass we use is very sharp and will cut you (paper cuts) very easily!

You have to be careful handling it. It does make excellent ice tea though!

 

Not too much rain at moment ,a few heavy down pours lasting about 1 hour about 4 times a week.

 

In my experiance the heavy rains here are in Sep and Oct.

 

My Thai Lady going to get some lemon grass from her village this week end ,so will plant pots around the patio area

and door areas
