I learnt about this original technique from a family member and thought that since it is summer I might just try it out.
This can be applied directly to the skin (with a spray bottle [optional] ) or around an area were the bugs are lingering.
So basically what you do is take the classic, medicinal Listerene and use it as a mosquito repellant to save some moolah!
Hopefully this explains enough, but if not I'm happy to answer any questions :)

You can also drink pineapple juice, or just eat pineapples. Mosquitos hate it.

There's another method where you mix different herbs like lemongrass, cinnamon, peppermint, citronella, and other strong smelling herbs mosquitoes don't like. You have to use a higher concentration though, since herbs aren't as chemical as DEET. And reapply more often.

I wouldn't worry to much about your skin getting sticky if you spray it on like a mist, but if you really wanted to I'm sure that mixing a little bit of water with the Listerene wouldn't hurt. As for the stains I would just put this on before putting on clothing and only re-apply it where necessary and just generally avoid your clothes- just like you would spray sunscreen. Hope that helps! :)
