The Avon Skin So Soft bath oil is a terrific alternative to using an aerosol bug repellent. The skitters absolutely hate the smell and stay away. Simply wipe on exposed skin areas with a piece of paper towel and you're bug free.

Yes. I heard this too.Someone I know down in the Fl.Keys on a yacht swears by it for skeeters. Also other people have said the same thing.
Skeeter A small, bloodsucking insect such as a mosquito. Hank, watch out for them dang old skeeters, they itch like a _____ when they gitcha. --------- Skitters are an entirely different thing. urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=skitters thefreedictionary.com/skitters merriam-webster.com/dictionary/skitters

I have used just the "Skin So Soft" product by itself. Keeps mosquitoes away for sure. don't know about fleas! Try it alone -- no other ingredients needed! (09/15/2008)

I don't know about a recipe, but I used to use Avon's Skin So Soft Bath Oil on my son because the fleas bothered him so. I would just put some in my hand and rub it on him. It has a strong smell, but it worked for him. There are a lot of "Skin So Soft" products, so be sure it's bath oil and not lotion or something else. (09/15/2008)

I mix 1/4 skin so soft and 3/4 rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle to use as mosquito repellant. It works very well in mosquito infested Florida! (09/15/2008)

You don't need to mix it with anything all by itself it does repel flies and gnats and yes, fleas also. (09/21/2008)
