Other than dousing ones self with Off, is there a better mosquito repellant out there?

I boiled crawfish yesterday evening and as soon as it started getting dark, they were swarming everyone. It was definitely the worst I've ever seen them.

All suggestions are welcome. TIA

Without a doubt! Peremthrin 38%. Put 2 oz per gallon of water in a sprayer and spray car port, yard, whatever and you WILL NOT have mosquitos where you sprayed.

When I walk in my yard and get to where I stopped spraying there are mosquitos. It's like an invisible mosquito bar.

Thanks to all for the Thermacell recommendation. Got a unit on the way; we'll see how it stands up to Alaska mosquitoes at our camp sites. If it works it is worth its weight in something very valuable but not quite as valuable as gold is now.

If you dont have kids or pets spray malathion really strong in the yard where you are cooking.
My buddy sprayed it straight and there wasnt a living bug in his yard ....dangerous to kids and pets though like that though

One of the questions I plan to ask the good lord when I meet him at thepearly gates is, "Why mosquitoes, ol lord, why?"

Based on his response, I will decide if I enter or not.
