Outside? Or inside? You can plant bug repelling plants, - do you need suggestions? I also use 2 patio fans facing in to the seating and food serving area on the patio. On low setting, they move enough air that flying bugs stay away as they don't like the breeze.
If you are looking for natural ways. I use fells naptha soap. I cut into 1" cubes and rub across the threshold of doors. Also do on the window sill. Then leave the cube in the window or door. Keeps the crawling bugs out for the whole summer. About once a month I rub across the door sill again. According to the vet I had in MI, this will not harm your pets.
