There are some ways to prevent mosquitoes from biting you
Wear Socks: 80% of all bites are on the ankle
Wear closed toed shoes for the same reason
Avoid Bannanas during the mosquito season: Bannanas produce a phermone that mosquitoes go ape over
Avoid sugary drinks because they also attract mosquitoes
Eat citrus. Despite being sweet, citrus does not attract mosquitoes and in fact repels them
Use essential oils' catnip and rosemary
