I noticed an uptick in skeeters after I ate beans.The biggest attractant is carbon dioxide. There's not much way around emitting that -- you gotta breathe.

Nah.... that's methane. 🚶🏼♂️💨I noticed an uptick in skeeters after I ate beans.![]()
I've wished before that mosquito just go the way of extinction. I see nothing in their contribution in the natural order of things. I do recall though being a little kid on a picnic and asking my mother why God created them. She just said, maybe God created them to remind you that there are days to appreciate when no mosquitoes around.
*One every 3 seconds.A single BAT can eat up to 1,200 mosquito-sized insects every hour*, and each bat usually eats 6,000 to 8,000 insects each night.
As unnerving as it may be to have bats flying around your yard, they are mosquito-killing machines. Despite their less-than-desirable reputation, bats possess a remarkable ability to control insects, especially disease-carrying mosquitoes. --Knockout Mosquito
A cloud of yellow jackets. heh
Your farts are an insect repellant.I noticed an uptick in skeeters after I ate beans.![]()
I did not know any of those facts ...Facts I know about yellow jackets:
1) You cannot outrun one. Don't even try.
2) Hiding behind a tree doesn't work. They will find you and make you pay!
3) They can sting you unlimited times and not die!
4) They are the most foul and cruel tempered insects in the woods!
Yeah, I sometimes use a function generator on my smart phone to produce a specific frequency that allegedly repels mosquitoes. I don't know if it works or not but I could see certain devices generating a sufficient hum at the proper frequency to induce a resonance response particularly in their wings that they probably wouldn't like. Hum them into attacking.....I found that the feral bee hives here in the bush were annoyed by the minelab Pi coils. I soon learnt to detect nowhere near them. Within about 50 feet they'd get agro. The coils give off quite an audible buzzing humming sound if you get your head within a few feet of the coil.
They should build such into metal detectors. Isn't most/all of the required hardware already there?Yeah, I sometimes use a function generator on my smart phone to produce a specific frequency that allegedly repels mosquitoes.

Now thems some pants to do the "you skeeters,can't touch this".The tops work so well I'm thinking of getting a set of bottoms as well for the ticks.

Avon skin so soft does wonders. Smells sweet and is oily but if you don’t mind the smell it will work. Nontoxic as wellGetting run out of a site just as it's getting good by a cloud of mosquitoes. You know what sucks worse than that? Losing your recovery pouch after getting chased off by mosquitoes.
Granted all I found was a tracer bullet and a 1960s penny BUT the unexpected dumping site I found may hold some interesting treats. I'll have to go back covered head to toe, even if there's no metal relics worth finding there might just be some cool old bottles so not a total bust, just mostly a bust🤣
Now you sound like my mother.🤣Avon skin so soft does wonders. Smells sweet and is oily but if you don’t mind the smell it will work. Nontoxic as well
Mine was always wanting to fix my hair. 😆Now you sound like my mother.🤣
"Here put this on."
No wonder the mosquitoes didn't like the stuff, 🤭
Neck hairs were an optional grab to keep us in line.Mine was always wanting to fix my hair. 😆
Don't get me started on when she'd clean my fingernails 😖
