Hi Carol: It is so nice that you picked my post--I thank you so much and I know it may help others to see the use in stopping, taking a breath, and using another approach instead of complaining about things you can't change.

Hi Shar Sitter 
You're welcome and thank YOU for the post on deterring mosquitoes.  As I mentioned on your post, wish I would have known this when I spent a year in the Missouri.   I am allergic to mosquito bites and we couldn't figure out anything to get rid of them. I was glad to get back home.
