The 9 Best Mosquito Repellents, According To Southerners
Southerners know the true horror of a beautiful summer afternoon ruined by a swarm of mosquitoes. They love warm, humid environments (basically all of the South) and attack anyone and everyone they can, leaving itchy, raised bite bumps that can swell on some people and annoy everyone regardless.
If you’re going to enjoy the summer months, mosquito repellent is a must in any Southern state. And while there are plenty of external repellent options, like citronella candles and mosquito coils, mosquito repellent you put on your skin is the best option to keep the pests away.
