Keep Mosquitoes Away With This DIY Spray
Here are some natural mosquito repellents to buy or DIY https://www.yourbeautyblog.com/2019/07/best-natural-mosquito-repellent-to-buy.html
Find the source. Somewhere outside you may have standing water, that is where they breed. I recently found that herbal plants deter pests, so I planted peppermint, rosemary and citronella, lemon grass. The mint will grow wild, so get a nice planter for the doorways, make sure you have no holes in your screens and you will be set. I can't take credit for this, I have an organic food store that had huge rosemary plants as you would a hedge and a garden around that. https://www.mosquitomagnet.com/articles/how-to-prevent-mosquitoes-from-breeding-on-your-property
