Yay! Someone else who uses the "X-ing them out" method.
Everything that works has already been said, but I have a couple funny stories about skeeto bites.
A friend of mine had cancer (not the funny part, don't worry). While she was on chemo, any mosquitos that bit her would die. Hehe suckers!
My grandma would slap mosquitos on her skin while they were biting her and leave the little carcass there on her arm or whatever. Said it was a warning to the other mosquitos that that would be their fate if they dared to bite her.
