Top 13 Plants That Repel Mosquitoes

                       Image result for mosquito plants free download 

     I said I would be posting this list. As times are rapidly changing around us we are going to have to do some thinking on how to change with it. One of these is to avoid illness the best we can. These plants may not keep a person from getting ill from mosquito's but if we get some growing around our doors we go in an out of, in the areas where people like to sit and gab outside or the kids play, even under some of those windows we are opening more to save money on the electric bill we at least should increase our odds of avoiding illness or just plain avoiding the !!@#$ itchiness of a bite!
    Yes you can go buy cans of bug spray for you yard or even your body if you don't mind putting chemicals on and in your body. But that also takes money that is even harder to come by with inflation or job lay offs! So if you can find some of these plants while income is still coming in it would be a good idea. Get you a start of some and divide or grow some more to share with other family members or close neighbors. Keeping our family and friends around us in a safer environment is always a good thing. The more folks we have around us doing ok / better in our changing world the better we will also do.

Here is one of the better lists I found. Go to the link and it will tell you about each plant

To make the most of mosquito repelling plants, place them in areas where people are most likely to spend their time, such as along walkways, around seating spots, or outdoor dining areas.
