I don't think I saw this posted, but its a recent article posted in the Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Disease, entitled "Repellent activity of herbal essential oils against aedes aegypti and Culex quinquefasciatus"... I think those are the 2 mosquito female types largely responsible for transmitting diseases like Dengue Fever.
Anyways, I bring this article to everyone's attention because I was trying to find a solution for my 2 kids. They both were getting eaten alive at school, parks... etc. apparently big breeding grounds according to all the reports I read. I read the attached article and my wife and I found a new repellent on the market which seems to work and is safe for kids. My kids get bitten much less often. Check it out, its called KIRI's mosquito patch... www.facebook.com/KIRIThailand. My wife got them because they are DEET-free, citronella based, and all natural. I even use it now when jogging and working out in the park... and my wife laughs when I use them watching tv along with my mosquito zapper in hand. The little pests are like ninjas. Anyways, protect the little ones... for those adults that have gotten dengue fever, you know what I am talking about.
