I used some Mosquito spray on holiday years back and it worked a bit still got me, that bottle trick wouldn't they just fly out the bottle nozzle?

It's like what they use for catching eels. They cant get out once they're in.

Anything that will help I will use. I am allergic too garden beasties and mossi's. I haven't collapsed and stopped breathing yet so they wont give me an epi pen (charming uh)

When I get bitten I have to go through a process fast of using a sting remover syringe type thingy/ice pack on/mark the size/get on the phone to the Dr and get an emergency appointment, to get anti-b's and treated.

Away as we are now, I come with pre-empt anti-biotics so if I get nibbled (guaranteed) when I am away I don't have to mess around with Dr's and hospitals.

Last year I was bitten so badly at home they were threatening to hospitalize me if it didn't start going down within 24 hours as it was heading for the vein. I gt the longest scarf I could find and tied it in an arm wrap and had my arm over my head the whole night tied to the bed stead. I was determined I wasn't going in hospital on a saline drip.

This started in 2005 and every year its the same

Mosquitos are a daily thing here in Indonesia. They appear usually between 7-8.30am then again between 5-6.30pm generally, but depending where you are it can be anytime. Here they tend to hang around moisture so any plants that have been watered etc etc. I do my best not to get bit, but average about one a week as I am very careful.

As mentioned some can carry and spread virus. When I was in Indonesia the last time, a friend of mine got bit and finished up in hospital for 3-4 days. The bite swelled up and he became drowsy. It turned out it was the bite from the mossy.

We have a lotion we can put on here which I use if I'm going to places where the possibility of mosquitoes is increased, it's called Soffell. If you ever come across it, I recommend it.
