  1. I go out for a walk with @TheRealPomax and clear up some scotch broom (very invasive and pervasive species of plant). Today, I discovered 10 mosquito bites, and of course, he has none.

    Anyone know of a #mosquito #repellent (for using on a person) that you can buy in #BC #Canada that works?

  6. If you can imagine the most #vile, #disgusting, #repugnant and #nasty behaviour a human being can exhibit, you've probably just described a #Republican #politician without even realizing it.

    It's all the rage with the #GOP #Brand these days.

    The more #repellent #smarmy and #slimy, the more authentic they are.

  11. All hail the Thermacell for making it tolerable to be outside and not be drained of all my blood. #mosquitoes #repellent #evening

  12. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has added CATNIP OIL and OIL OF CITRONELLA to its list of *registered*, skin-applied chemicals that repel mosquitoes, joining DEET, IR 3535, PMD (oil of lemon eucalyptus), picaridin, and 2-undecanone. Officially, I don't think catnip is registered for use against ticks but there's plenty of web chatter that it works. #mosquitoes #repellent #ticks #epa #nature epa.gov/insect-repellents/skin

  13. Fun fact: DEET is also effective at repelling leeches. However, I haven't seen that as an EPA-accepted usage in the United States so I don't think you'll see it on the label like you can in Australia (home to 100+ species of leeches. #leeches #deet #repellent bushman-repellent.com/bushman-

  14. The Bug Bite Thing actually works 😮
    I just purchased another one to keep in my fishing bag 😊
    But, I would still use DEET 😉

  15. Quick tip for Thermacell owners: replace the repellent cap after every use so that you don't lose fluid from evaporation. Refill cartridges (active ingredient: metofluthrin) are insanely expensive. Doing this will also remind you to turn the device off. #mosquitoes #pesticide #repellent #thermacell #pyrethroids

  20. Good morning. Does anyone know if these things actually work? I have anecdotal evidence all over my body that it doesn't, and the only thing I'm poisoning is me and @roel 😬

  21. One mosquito-control myth that will likely never die is that certain species of plants have the ability to repel mosquitoes. Even the ones that are loaded with monoterpenes and other volatiles have absolutely no repellent effect. Sorry, master gardeners, I'm just the messenger. #mosquito #mosquitoes #repellent #garden #gardening #plants #science

    I cannot bear it.

    Frantz #Fanon was born on the Caribbean island of Martinique, which was then a French colony. Frantz Fanon said (at first Congrès des Écrivains Noirs in #Paris in 1956) :
    "It is not possible to subjugate people without logically making them inferior through and through. And racism is simply the emotional, affective and sometimes intellectual expression of this prior inferiorisation."

  27. Hi FediFamily,

    Looking for product recommendations #CDC, #NIH or #EPA recommend #tick #repellent. Please do not suggest herbal remedies that are not verified by CDC, NIH or EPA.

  28. How do #bacteria sense repellents? @zhulinlab show that although the #attractant citrate & the #repellent malate bind to the same site in the receptor ligand-binding domain of a #chemoreceptor, they induce different conformational changes #PLOSBiology plos.io/47Teus6

  38. #Mosquito control experiment status: #eucalyptus #lemon oil #repellent works, and doesn't melt plastic like #DEET -- however, need to change clothing between inside and outside, otherwise you fill up any small enclosed spaces with eucalpytus lemon oil and you start choking on the fumes. Yes, my pants were rapidly deployed outside (I put on other pants, don't worry).

  39. Unnamed tributary of Darby Creek, PA

    Mosquitos disappeared when I entered this cold tributary 😊

    The water temperature was 3˚C (~6˚F) lower than that at its mouth (Darby Creek), where I was surrounded by many mosquitos even with DEET 😉

    While it makes sense, it is a bit strange and very refreshing with cold water – I was wearing sandals 😊

    Fallfish and Sunfish are active in Darby Creek, and Creek Cubs were found here.

  40. Und danke an @Mylin für den heißen Tipp - Schwarzkümmelöl 1/50 (vermutlich mit Wasser (oder mit Alkohol?)) verdünnt als #Repellent gegen #Zecken. Ich teste das (was der Kater wohl dazu sagt?).

  41. Here are my proposed corrections to Spartan Mosquito's ad on Amazon. Instead of showing biting flies, stable flies, gnats, and chiggers, they bought stock photos of a ked (Lipoptena cervi?), a heleomyzid fly (Suillia quinquepunctata?), a gall midge (Dasineura gleditchiae?), and a true velvet mite (Trombidiidae). #insect #repellent #entomology #TaxonomyFail

  42. OK, how many mistakes can you find? Screenshot is from Spartan Mosquito's Amazon page and shows the organisms repelled by its GO! spray (picaridin). #TaxonomyFail #entomology #insect #acarology #arthropod #nature #repellent #fly #Diptera #mosquitoes #ticks #chiggers #medical
