John, at one time, before they moved to Pennsy and now use
different water, I had great luck with the drinking of a
can of Schaffer beer in the evening.  Now it may have all
been in my mind, but my neighbor who drank Millers was always
covered with the beasties while they avoided me. (I should 
think about that).  Seriously, avoid wearing blue colors.
Observations made of Jersey skeeters seem to point out that
they are attracted to blue, at least in Jersey.  To make a cheap
repelent, mix 3 parts water with 1 part Avon Skin-so-soft.  I
hear it works just as well as the higher priced stuff and does
not leave you smmelling like the floor of a garage.
