Mosquito Remedy
Pass this on to anyone
who likes sitting out in the evening or when they're having a cook out. So
you don't like those pesky mosquitoes,
especially now that they have the potential to carry the West Nile Virus?
Here's a tip that was given at a recent gardening forum.
Put some water in a white dinner plate and add
a couple drops of Lemon Fresh Joy dish detergent.
Set the dish on your porch, patio, or other outdoor area. Not
sure what attracts them, the lemon smell, the white plate color, or what, but
mosquitoes flock to it, and drop dead
shortly after drinking the Lemon Fresh Joy/water mixture, and usually within
about 10 feet of the plate.
Check this out---it works just super! May seem trivial, but it may help control mosquitoes around your home, especially in the South and elsewhere where the West Nile virus is reaching epidemic proportions in mosquitoes, birds, and humans

Bob, a fisherman,
takes one vitamin B-1 tablet a day April through October . He said it works.
He was right. Hasn't had a mosquito bite in 33 years. Try it. Every one he has
talked into trying it works on them. Vitamin B-1 (Thiamin Hydrochloride 100
mg.)
Brewers Yeast and Garlic powder in pet's dinners is supposed to keep fleas
away, it's healthy too.
