When I was a kid all they had was this old WWII stuff called 6-12. It was like rubbing hair tonic on you. It had it all. It stunk, got grease on everything, (especially pages of homework), and didn’t work.
Yep – when my oldest started wearing deodorant, he dissed the “old spice” I offered him and started wearing what his friends from school recommended – Axe for Men. We started to be able to tell when he was coming before we heard him coming.

Years ago I learned you can use Avon’s Skin So Soft as a mosquito repellent. Works for me! And I haven’t repelled anyone so far…that I know of. :D

That’s how I feel about Lysol. Smells so nasty, I can’t be in the same room.

I kind of like the spell of bug repellant. I reminds me of summer camp, and hiking, and days spent out by the lake.

That might as well be every cologne ever made.

Unfortunately I have a different answer when my family asks that question!

Looking for a good mosquito repellent that smells good? Go to a pet store and get yourself some liquid catnip in a spray bottle.

You know it’s bad when the dog doesn’t want to roll in it.

You should spray this more often, Ralph…maybe they’ll all leave….
