The mosquitoes here are terrible right now, they are even out at high noon. I was looking for some safe ideas a while back myself, as the foggers and sprays are a bit scary. Turns out, Chrysanthemums are a natural mosquito repellent. I found that out after researching pyrethrin, the active ingredient for the Thermacell unit. Pyrethrum is extrcted from the Chrysanthemum flower. I have been kicking around the idea of buying a jug of the stuff to try it out, but it is fairly pricey.
