We finally got so much rain in May that we are no longer under drought conditions thank goodness. Summer is our normal rainy season and we've been having afternoon storms almost every day but yesterday and today have been dry. The heat has been awful and "skeeters" are driving me crazy too! I ran out of Off and bought another brand which caused skin irritations and severe itching! Someone told me Avon Skin so Soft was a good mosquito repellant and I remembered having some from four years ago when my mom passed and we cleaned out her house! Sure enough, I found about 3/4 of a large bottle. I slathered it all over and it really keeps the mosquitoes away from me, I might just have to find an Avon Lady and order some.

edited to correct spelling.
