Has anyone tried the mosquito repellent you wear around your waist? The mosquitoes here are terrible and I'm tempted. It's a small unit they're selling for $8.99 at the grocery store with a replaceable repellent. I'm skeptical about whether it would keep mosquitoes from biting your ankles! Let me know if you have experience with it!

Yes, I have tried it and it really works. I walk at our state park in the evenings and the misquotoes there are thick. I've been wearing one for about 2 weeks and have not had a single bite and they usually love me more than anyone else around. Go for it, its worth it.

We use the patch "Don't bite me" Can be ordered from http://www.dontbitemepatch.com My husband wears it every time he gardens. It is good for a long time. He only changes it every few days. No smell, no mess. Hope this helps.

I did just read a report that they were a waste of money. We were told about the use of regular listerine, keep some in a small sprayer, and spray on hems of clothing, also on wrists, ankles, etc., So far it has proved better than any of the spray chemicals, and we are not even going to try the expensive "new" stuff.

We use Bounce Dryer Sheets. Place one sticking out of your pockets and one out the back of your collar or top of socks, it seems to work great for us!
