Mosquitoes serve no purpose in the circle of life. They are an annoyance to everyone, especially to those like myself who feel like mosquito magnets. I know some people that can go out with no protection from the nasty vermin and come back in with no bites. I am on team, goes outside for 2 minutes and comes back in with 20 bites. The struggle is real.

Currently, my ankles and feet look like a mosquito war zone, it's bad. I took to Facebook to find the best ways to address my current situation. I did try one of the suggestions to use witch hazel, which not only seemed to help my bites, but also great for my face.
