How to Avoid Mosquito Bites Naturally

Intro: I hate mosquitoes! I was the person they always seemed to bite until I learned how to avoid them. Follow these steps to avoid mosquito bites naturally.

 

Step 1: Dryer sheets! The best naturally mosquito fighter is dryer sheets. Rub a dryer sheet or two on your entire body and hair. Keep the sheets you used in your pockets when you go outside. For some people, this method works as well as the chemical based bug repellants.

 

Step 2: Avoid mosquito bites naturally by trying tomato seed oil. This natural spray can work great against mosquitoes but I have heard that some people experience bites from other bugs which are attracted to the tomato seed oil.

 

Step 3: Try an eco-friendly repellant which doesn’t contain DEET. They can often work just as good as chemical based bug sprays.

 

Step 4: Wear pants and a long sleeve shirt when sitting outside by a camp fire. Mosquitoes cannot bite your skin if it isn’t available.

 

Tips: Try these alternative methods of avoiding mosquito bites naturally and determine which one works best for you.

 

Warnings: DEET can be harmful to you, others, and the environment.
