Maybe a propane fuelled mosquito trap would help. I saw it being advertised in a local magazine. It converts the lpg into co2, which attracts the insects and traps them. It’s supposed to be quite effective and probably has no odor. I don’t have the contact details though.

I don’t think its the katol that keep them away….I think you need to keep a small portion of the Zubuchon on the grill to keep the mosquitos, crawler and bugs busy :)

Odie, we have lots and lots of tanglad or lemongrass planted nearby, and that seems to help. But we do place several burning katol coils on the property at least two hours before dinner to ward off the bugs… but oddly, they didn’t seem to bother anyone that night until LATE in the evening… when all the katol had long burned off… I suspect the smoke from the barbecue grills also helps somewhat…

What a very lovely setting, napa ka romantic!!! Sir MM, may i ask, how do you ward off mosquitoes or any other insects (if there are any) that may crawl when you set up dinning outdoors? These had been my problem when we try to eat outside the terrace. Thanks for the advise.
