    I'll have to look into it. For me, it isn't mosquitoes (they don't like me all that much), it's ticks. We have tons of ticks around here and I walk my dogs every day. 1.5 hr protection would be perfect for a dog walk, as long as it repels ticks.

    this isn't a truly scientific test, but interesting nonetheless
