This little metal tin of bug repellent is extremely effective and inexpensive. It's also organic, free of all the gross chemicals, made by good people, and actually smells nice in a fancy apothecary sort of way. Dab it anywhere you'd apply perfume (look at me all grown up). It's an absolute must pack for me on long field exercises or backpacking trips. This tin shown is roughly tape-measure sized; there's a smaller version that's lip balm sized too.
I've found two different companies, Badger Balm (linked below) and Murphy's Naturals, independently offering what is essentially the same product. Both have worked great for me in a variety of environments, so it all comes down to your flavor of mosquito and which smell you prefer.
