Question:

Does any one know a natural or home remedy for mosquito repellent that doesn't have any harmful chemical in it


Answers:

Yes. There are several. One, I believe, is citrus (hence citronella candles).

Many recommend garlic: http://www.garlic-central.com/mosquito.h... . And About.com (http://chemistry.about.com/cs/howthingsw... ) recommends a list of essential oils:

- Citronella Oil
- Lemon Eucalyptus Oil
- Cinnamon Oil
- Castor Oil
- Rosemary Oil
- Lemongrass Oil
- Cedar Oil
- Peppermint Oil
- Clove Oil
- Geranium Oil
- Possibly Oils from Verbena, Pennyroyal, Lavender, Pine, Cajeput, Basil, Thyme, Allspice, Soybean, and Garlic
