Another alternative is a good mosquito net for the period of your sleep, unmolested, safe and secure.

Another alternative is just keep the doors and windows closed.
Re: Pesky little critters...
Unfortunately, Matt, that's not much use when the cleaning staff have left doors open during the day while they're at work and you're out. By the time you get back you've already got unwanted visitors.
Re: Pesky little critters...
When I read the title o of the thread I thought it was about the mods. :D
My experience with mosquitoes is that what works well one day doesn't work as well a few days later. So I tend to use a variety of sprays, coils, plug ins and repellents in no particular rota.

Well, you can always do what we do. unleash half a can of repellent in the room, then leave for an hour or two.
Seems to do the job fine. Bit stinky, but it works. :)

But yes, be careful about the mosquitos here. Not only are they annoying, they can also give you neat things like dengue fever. Not sure about you, but I don't want to find out what dengue fever feels like.
Personally, we just spray the shit out of our rooms, then leave them for a couple hours, and it seems to do the job just fine.
Re: Pesky little critters...
Brilliant solution, matt.
Re: Pesky little critters...
Do the mosquitoes die from the poison, or do they drown?
Re: Pesky little critters...
From matt's description I believe they shit themselves to death.
