Better than a cool breeze

If you've got a cool breeze, that will usually keep the bugs off when your working. But if you don't, someone tipped me off about how to still keep mosquitoes away when you are out in the country building walls.
You rub your clothes and arms and head with sheets of fabric softener. 
I tried it last week. It actually works. It's fabulous.
