How to Keep Mosquitoes Away While Camping

Mosquitoes are an annoying part of any camping trip. They bring painful bites that can transmit disease. Keeping mosquitoes away from your family and your campsite should be one of the main priorities when planning your trip. You can keep mosquitoes from ruining your fun by following just a few simple techniques.

Instructions

    • 1

      Apply repellent to yourself and family. This can be a DEET-based product or something natural. You can even rub the inside of an orange peel on exposed parts of your body. Follow manufacturer's instructions for application for any commercial products and re-apply as necessary.

    • 2

      Keep your tent door closed at all times. This prevents mosquitoes from infesting your tent while you are out fishing or hiking.

    • 3

      Maintain a campfire if your campsite allows it. Mosquitoes hate smoke and will not come around your site if a fire is present.
