This is still my Costa Rica family excursion scenario. Nothing set in stone but I want to be prepared. Instead of spraying myself with DEET until I have tumors growing all over my skin I was wondering if they make any mosquito repellent clothing that actually works?

You could consider permethrin for treating your clothing, but they will still bite your exposed skin.

This is true. I mean I'll usually wear a bug net over my face if I'm an area where they're super thick. I've been in Canada all summer and honestly I can tell you the mosquitoes never bothered me at all. I mostly got chewed up by the noseeums.
