Don’t loose your cool over those pesky varmints. Set up a large fan and blast them away from your patio, deck, porch and grill areas.

Drinking a beer won’t keep the mosquitoes away, but beer can help create a thirst-quenching diversion. Place a mixture of flat beer combined with equal amounts of antiseptic mouthwash, and Epsom salt in a garden sprayer that attaches to a hose, and spray the area. This mixture is said to effectively get rid of mosquitoes, and it is a cheaper and much safer alternative to commercial products that contain harmful chemicals.

All kidding aside, mosquitoes carry deadly diseases and should be taken seriously.
