Anyone know what I can use for inside mossie protection that doesn't involve burning something, bright lights (probably pointless since the room is well lit) or drowning in chemicals.
I keep this place pretty well sealed but they still get in - not plague proportion but enough to annoy me.

Try not to breathe out - it's the carbon dioxide that attracts them.:rolleyes:

I am not sure if they are still available, but you used to be able to get electronic gadgets for camping that plugged into a car's cigarette lighter. That would ultrasonically kill mosquitos.

Try SuperCheap, Repco, Bursons etc.

Hi,
I believe ceiling fans discourage them.

I sit next to the missus, they all go to her.... but seriously,

Having fans around really help. In the garden mint leaves crushed and rubbed on the skin help. Getting rid of breeding places (where possible) helps. As Ross River Fever spreads this is going to become very important. Thank gosh we dont have Chikungunya here is Aust.
