It works, but I'm not keen on 24hrs of poison on my skin, just when we're going out and I know those itchy devils will be under my table nibbling at me.<br /><br />I ordered Skin-so-soft from the local Avon lady in early May - still waiting for my order to appear.<br /><br />Jeanie - I will have to try the Listerine idea - thanks for that suggestion.<br /><br />Beck - queso Oaxaca is not Limburger cheese, so the queso man is probably safe...lol!<br /><br />Jonna - I'll have to look for the stripes! <br /><br />Leslie - all crocs have been scrubbed and left out in the sun to dry. Hopefully that will make a difference. As for Miguel knowing the cheese - he once tasted a piece of cheese at Costco - blue cheese, I think - and Miguel, who likes just about everything, spit it out. So he thinks I am talking about that cheese - blue cheese - I guess that's close enough to Limburger - he gets the idea now.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18391875870787818644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9147217458046676151.post-2762599577216623862009-06-30T17:53:32.793-05:002009-06-30T17:53:32.793-05:00well, mosquitos tend to like certain people more t...well, mosquitos tend to like certain people more than others...here they like my husband best and that's just fine with me!<br /><br />Limburger Cheese?

Mainly, I use Autun Activo or Off - they work as long as you don't sweat them off. <br /><br />I hate those feet mosquitoes! They live under my favorite computer table and under the dining table and under the coffee table. Periodically I spray under all of them with Raid but then I can't use them till the smell dissipates. Unfortunately, the mosquito that carries Dengue prefers to hide under tables and chairs and bites in the daytime, look for tiger stripes on that pile of bodies by your chair.Jonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14775514857047122526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9147217458046676151.post-61925154743497595272009-06-30T10:05:11.597-05:002009-06-30T10:05:11.597-05:00You are so darn funny!

Believe it or not, mosquitos are a problem in dry Arizona in the monsoon season. And I'd never read that about mosquitos being attracted to the smell of cheese! HA! They must chase the Queso Oaxaca man!Life's a Beach!https://www.blogger.com/profile/17604678027403810586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9147217458046676151.post-49550433703771506082009-06-30T08:55:16.694-05:002009-06-30T08:55:16.694-05:00I received an e-mail a few weeks ago about mosquit...I received an e-mail a few weeks ago about mosquitos. Put Listerine in a spray bottle and spray the deck, your feet, the dog etc. I think it works and it's non toxic. <br /><br />I am also a fan of Skin So Soft. I've been bringing it to Isla for years. I put an ounce or two in a ziploc bag with a little water and a facecloth or J cloth and keep it in the shower. After showering wipe your whole body including feet with it and return to the bag for next time.<br /><br />Once again non toxic and it totally works.jeaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00748849108794254036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9147217458046676151.post-78508796245293801252009-06-30T08:36:37.341-05:002009-06-30T08:36:37.341-05:00You are so right.

Otherwise, do you ever apply mosquito repellent to your feet? (one that smells stronger than limburger cheese, LOL!) Try Avon's Skin so Soft. I think you can get it from your local Avon lady here.Islagringohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18181198510287530636noreply@blogger.com
