Get a portable Clam screen tent. Easy to set up and totally bug proof. No need to spray yourself with chemicals.

Box Fan

Set a box fan facing the length of the RV where you will be sitting. Mosquito's can't fly when there is wind. Been using one for years now it works.

Every summer I try to eat a clove of raw garlic a day. It keeps mosquito's and all other bugs and some people away from ya. It really works.

The Zika virus is spread by the Aedes Egyptii mosquito. You should be safe in Michigan. Here is a map of the Aedes Egyptii's range:

......"you should be safe in......."

Nobody is "safe"........:(

News is advising travelers from the areas on the map - or from foreign countries to continuing spraying with Deet (or?) upon return to the non-infested areas/zones of the USA - as you may have been bitten by a Zika, and although *you* may not suffer any ill effects - you still carry the virus for about two weeks.

A "normal" mosquito may bite you, which then may become a Zika carrying mosquito - and expanding the areas/zones.

Correct info - who knows for sure!..:h

Bottom line - use the techniques posted, and add your sure-fire mosquito protection to the thread...:C

Thermacell device does not keep the mosquitos away from me. I have to douse myself in Deet.

I've used permatharin on clothing, maybe i'll have to try it on grass and such.
