That helps some. Perhaps you have lemongrass or peppermint plants in your yard to help keep the mosquitoes away. Somehow it seems that they are all only so effective. Nobody in my family has been able to go outside without getting eaten up this summer. If you feel like mosquitoes have been much worse in Indiana this year, it isn't your imagination.
