Has anyone tried the following and did they work?  
5 Plants that repell mosquitoes:  
mosquito plant  
catnip  
citronella grass  
rosemary  
marigolds  
I read if you plant these in pots and move them close to where you are sitting they will help to repell the blood suckers, has anyone had success?  
I also read that pinning a fabic sheet to your clothes, using the original (yellow) listerine, rubbed on your skin,or even vicks vapo rub will all repell the mosquito. I am very interested if anyone has tried and if they worked. I also have read that spraying around your doors and windows with the mouth wash will stop them from coming in (not to be used on wood). I know most stores are very low on mosquitoe stuff and was told it would take 2 weeks to get the stuff back in so need ideas as I swell badly. Also anyone spray there yards with something natural that won't harm pets?
