    Mosquitoes can fly for miles to one place to another. A fan blowing in your room will keep them off you.

    They hang out by the commode during the day and in corners and on the ceilings.

    Real vanilla flavoring is noted for repelling them.

    Avon puts out a mosquito repelant. Their skin-so-soft bath oil works for some people.

    Source(s): We use Cutter and Off to repel them. Deet is the best to repel them. Avon's bath oil works for me and my sister. Not for some.

    look up viatek mosquito shield, its something i saw on an info-merical and it repels mosquitoes without the use of deet, a harmful chemical that can cause health damage and if ingested can kill! hope i helped! oh and to get rid of em right now turn on a light and watch them come close to it and then smack em with ur hand into a wall, be careful not to hit a lamp or table coz that could hurt alot!

    You can always try laying honey down on a toilet paper roll and tie it to a light source. Hoping that it will fly towards the light source and get stuck on the honey. Just make sure the honey doesn't drip on the floor. Or use something else thats sticky like glue or tape.
