Welcome! to the site, Laz! I agree, oil of lemon eucalytus is excellent! As far as oils, I also use lemongrass, Texas cedarwood, cinnamon leaf and citronella java, either added to a commercial spray or I put together my own! Our recent rains gave us a break from the dang skeeters. Last couple of days when I go outside, the skeeters haven't even shown up. But I know, it won't be long until they come back in force, maybe worse than before!
I would feel more optimistic about a bright future for man if he spent less time proving that he can outwit Nature and more time tasting her sweetness and respecting her seniority. E. B.White
