Ways To Keep Mosquitos Away While Camping

When you go camping, especially in the summer months, there will almost always be some mosquitos around that might, and probably will drive you a little crazy.

There is nothing more infuriating than being constantly woken up by mosquitos buzzing in your ear, being itchy from bites, and if you’re unlucky, having bad reactions to bites that make you look like you have chickenpox in all your vacation photos. 

If you’re camping in tropical areas, mosquitos also carry horrid diseases such as dengue fever, malaria, and zika viruses, making it even more important to avoid being bitten at all costs. 

I have lived most of my life in Kenya and have had malaria 4 times, and believe me it’s not much fun, so it’s best to avoid being bitten if you can. 

There are, luckily, ways to keep mosquitos away while camping, all of which we will discuss today. I’ll go through all the options so the next time you go camping you can load up and put into force, all the was to keep mosquitos from biting you while camping.
