Mosquito Problem? Try This Easy DIY Beer Mosquito Repellent Is it just me or does it feel like the mosquitoes are out bad this year? I can't walk my dog in the backyard without being bit a billion times by those little boogers. As I sit here typing this out, I am fighting the urge to scratch said mosquito bites. We all know how irritating and annoying they can be. Who really sprays Off on them every time they go outside? Especially if it's just for five minutes? Maybe you have tried citronella candles while sitting on your patio. That helps for sure. Perhaps you have lemongrass or peppermint plants in your yard to help keep the mosquitoes away. Somehow it seems that they are all only so effective. It's always good to have another way to keep the mosquitoes away from you while you're hanging out in your yard. A few friends of mine on Facebook shared a post about a cheap and easy DIY mosquito repellent. It’s not harmful to children, your pets, or your plants. And according to them, it really works.
