Here in Taiwan's sub-tropical weather mosquitoes are a problem year around. Anyone have suggestions in keeping them away while outdoor hooping without using DEET or other harmful chemicals? Thanks.

I dunno if it's available in Taiwan.. but I'm in India and I use "Tiger Balm" - not particularly spreadable so it's not really something you would spread over your skin before... but if you dab a little bit over a bite it doesn't itch anymore! happy hooping :)

Ha! i used to cry when my parents put the Tiger Balm on me because it stung like hell! it cleared the sinuses pretty good though if you put some right under your nose.

Thanks to the vanilla extract solution and the extreme heat (gonna be 100 today) the mesquito problem is much better!

Glad your getting some relief. FL has been a buggy swamp since Tropical Storm Debbie drenched us.

This product also works well but check to see if they ship to your location before you order

Thanks! Not a problem with the shipping issue. I have friends in the US who make frequent trips here. But maybe I'll just loan my body to do research and contact the manufacturer, Dancing Roots to obtained a free bottle of "Crocodile Herbal Insect Repellent." LoL.
