Hello, my property is surrounded by woods, so we do have a mosquito problem. If I'm going to have a party outside, or if we want to just sit on the deck, I use a citronella candle on the table. Also you can put the mosquito repellant in tiki torches to help repel the mosquitos. Those can really help. Another thing that deters mosquitos is wind. So if you have some fans you can plug in outside and just aim them around the area you will be sitting in, that really helps!

Mosquitoes spend morning / afternoon times in bushes / vegetation. Lemon grass is not only great for cooking, but can help as a deterrent.

It may depend on where you live, but by around 3pm they are up and about, looking for a meal, in my neck of the woods.
