RE: Listerine Bug Spray
Definitely a recipe that has made the rounds but there is no truth to it. Check out this story and there is a link to other myths as well. http://pestcemetery.com/home-remedies-work/

RE: Listerine Bug Spray
Well, I tried this the other day. I was in my yard, being eaten alive. I went in, rubbed some off-brand Listerine on my arms and legs.
Didn't SEE another mosquito... So, for me, it worked.

RE: Listerine Bug Spray
Seems that using Listerine for bugspray is completely bogus. See this link on Snopes: http://www.snopes.com/oldwives/dishsoap.asp
Editor's Note We've heard this from people like Linne, who have tried it. Have you tried it? Does it work or not work for you? It worked for her, so it's worth a try.

Actually, Listerine contains sodium floride, which is toxic, but not noticed in small amounts. Calcium floride, on the other hand is natural and good for you.

Hair spray works well too for killing insects. It stiffens their wings so they can't fly.
