Hi Kathy. Here's a very old recipe for mosquito spray. Use an extra-large pitcher to mix: 1 large bottle of Blue Mouthwash (Dollar Store), 3 tablespoons of Epson Salts, and 3 cans of stale beer. Mix until the Epson Salt is dissolved. Then pour it in a small spritz bottle. This recipe will last all summer and will keep mosquitoes and other insects away for several days.
