Yeah, we use the similar (could be the same) stuff out where I work, where flies can reach biblical proportions. We use: "Natures Botanical: Rosemary & Cedarwood in a Natural Crème". When you read the directions its actually meant to be used around horses eyes!! But because of this they use all natural ingredients. We got this stuff as an option after someone brought up in a safety meeting that it says in the fine print on the Bushmans cans "Not to be used for prolonged use".

As for how effective it is for mosquitoes, I'll find out in a couple of days when we should have some guys working in a mosquito infested area...
