    Skeeters and Coffee

    Have any of you ever heard of burning coffee grounds to repel skeeters?
    I read it on the interweb so it must be true. They say just put coffee grounds, fresh or used as long as it's dry in a heat proof container and light it like a candle. The smoke is supposed to repel them.
    Anyone tried this?

          We tried it at deer camp and it worked. Problem was no one could stand the smell.
