| Re: What does everyone use for mosquitoes? Make your own. Remember this is in addition to your Frontline, Preventatic, Heatworm med....
Take a BIG fat lemon (the more rind the better) and slice it paper thin. Put in a bowl with a tablespoon of crushed rosemary leaves (or a 6 inch sprig of fresh). Pour a quart of hot, near boiling water over the lemon / rosemary mix. Let steep overnight. Strain and put into a large spray bottle. Keep in the refrigerator. Shake well before using. The lemon in this spray with the rosemary oil will give your dog a beautiful shiny coat and will keep fleas, ticks, and other bugs away… including mosquitoes, so you get extra heartworm protection. If your dog has dry skin or allergies add a teaspoon of tree oil and a tablespoon of Aloe pulp. I spray the dogs every evening when we are out.
This has worked wonders on dogs and also works great on people who hike and walk in the woods. No bug will get near this stuff, and of course it’s all natural.
