I have had good results with the herb tansy when I used it to repel mosquitos during camping trips in Southern New Jersey. It has similar scent to Avon Skin so soft. Apply by rubbing the leaves to your skin. It is very easy to grow, since it is a perennial.

Tansy oil is an ancient and powerful abortifacient used by old crones for centuries to induce miscarriages. It's also toxic. Be careful with that stuff.
