Guest guest Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 I've read a few times that bounce repels mosquitoes. You tie it to your belt loop or around your ankle ~ Was wondering if anyone has tried this, and does it work? My wedding is in the woods on the 18th of this month. When planning all this we never thought of the mosquitoes. Im wondering if we stapled bounce sheets along the bottom of the benches if that would help. We are using tiki torches and citrinilla candles. The Bounce sheet thing would be great if it works Thanks kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 i would doubt it. Mosquitoes like fragrances. The best thing you can do is to make yourself " invisible " to them with dark clothing, etc. Laura who is allergic to mosquito bites On 6/3/05, mistynights234 <mistynights234 wrote: > I've read a few times that bounce repels mosquitoes.

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 ....when i groom my ponies, i always do a quick wipe down with a couple of damp bounce strips. Every other horse in the stable is loaded with that horrible smelling insecticide fly spray but my two are pretty much fly and mosquito free. I have converted at least 5 other people in the stable to using bounce strips instead of the fly spray. Please keep in mind, that I wet these strips and then squeeze the excess water out before using them so I am not sure your idea will work that well with just dry strips. I would do a simple test run at home first and would love to know if it works.. pat i would doubt it. Mosquitoes like fragrances. The best thing you cando is to make yourself "invisible" to them with dark clothing, etc.Laura who is allergic to mosquito bitesOn 6/3/05, mistynights234 <mistynights234 wrote:> I've read a few times that bounce repels mosquitoes.
