"I use lavender essential oil to keep mosquitoes away. It also heals and takes the itch away from the mosquitoes bite." ~ T'Alyne
"To protect plants, I found the following online and modified just a bit: Crush three garlic cloves and mix with two tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add one and a half teaspoons of liquid soap and five cups of water. Put in spray container. Spray front and backs of leaves." ~ Char (GA)
