      Those are very bad! They work, but you are breathing that stuff. Also, there were warnings a few years ago to not wear them when walking a dog because dogs were getting very ill from them. Someone loaned me one to try and it made me get that weird "I'm about to puke" mouth-water thing. ICK!!!!!

        I use a synergy blend oil mixed in alcohol free Witch Hazel and a small amount of distilled water in a spray bottle, safe for small children too and animals. The oil has Citronella, Eucalyptus, Cedarwood, Lemongrass, Lavender, Litsea, Tea Tree, Patchouli and Catnip. It works wonders as long as you re-apply. I also burn the oil outdoors in diffusers in the stable to keep it mosquito free.

I should be able to find that here. I'll try some other essential oils too, can't be less effective than the stuff stores sell... there was something really good when I was a kid, but that's illegal now. Apparently it was poisonous.
          Thanks guys

                  They sell this all natural bug repellant here called bug soother. It's mostly lemongrass. Some water, vanilla, castor oil a few other things. It works pretty well, as in keeps the bus mostly away but you'll still end up with a few bites here and there.

                  I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
                  It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
                  Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.
