Anyone heard of eucalyptus lotion- I heard it works great against mosquitoes and other insects, which are my biggest enemy in summer. I would like to know if it really works so well.

I think you are talking about Repel lemon Eucalyptus lotion. Yes, it is supposedly proven to be effective against mosquitoes, deer ticks, and supposedly no-see-ums for up to six hours.
Good point is, it is not greasy, nor has this strange smell that many bug lotions have, actually
Eucalyptus lotion’s scent is nice.
Did you know Eucalyptus lotion was recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for effective protection against mosquitoes?
