I love these and will definitely be trying them out.
The static cling one I will be trying out tomorrow night at work. We wear scrubs--top and pants and no matter how many dryer sheets I use or how much fabric softener, during a night at work---those scrubs cling.
Thanks!

Your Welcome!

I hope that it works. That particular one was new information to me, but it will definitely be one that I try with some of my trousers.

That mosquito one sounds good. I'm always eaten alive.

Tell me about it! All I have to do is take one step outside and the mosquitoes start swarming to me. I can literally stand outside for five minutes and come in covered in at least 20 mosquito bites. They love me. That particular tip is definitely one that I will try!

[ancientgirl]

Yeah, I can be in a group of 20 people, yet be the only one bitten. And people wonder why I don't like sitting on my balcony. Other than the heat and humidity, I'd rather not be food supply for bugs.

[ragazza_astuta]

Yes, that sounds exactly like me.

Plus, what with the West Nile Virus, which the mosquitoes carry here, there is that added worry. I pretty much never set foot outside in the evenings; especially in the summer. I hate the itching and try to avoid it at all cost.

Oh another tip! Rubbing alcohol works wonders at stopping the itch of mosquito bites; for a while anyway.

I just eat the pizza cold

I love cold pizza too. I almost prefer it cold rather than fresh sometimes. Especially pepperoni pizza; that is best cold in my humble opinion. :)

Thank you for the tip on fruit flies! They're terrible where I live (along with mosquitos) and nip me alive *L* I'll definitely be trying that out next time I want to chill on the porch :)

I can completely sympathize. Mosquitoes flock to me and I am eaten alive. I can literally stand outside for five minutes and come back in with 20+ bites. It sucks. Even if I am in a group they only eat me. Must be something in my chemistry or something. :)
