I've got them on the sides of my thigh and the little babies have been getting me on my wrists and arms when I go to work in the morning and mid-day. I'm allergic to mosquito bites, so I've had these big swollen knots (and they're super obvious, so I try to wear pants when in public) on the side of my right thigh and they're now starting to go back down.

AVON Skin So Soft will keep them far away from you! I don't know why but it works very well. I was a mosquito magnet when I lived in Houston. I hated using the other products that stink and seem toxic for your body...then it was suggested by my mother to try Skin So Soft. I tried it and it works! I even sprayed it on my front door as Houstonians know those mosquitos will cling to your front door and when you open it...you suck in about 15 or more! I would coat my door with it to keep them away.

I have not had to deal with them since moving to Northern California...but when in Houston I come supplied with my Skin So Soft!
