Put out a bowl with apple cider vinegar and red wine. The sugar will attract them.

Thanks. I put a plastic container with water, white vinegar, sugar and dish soap on a table on my patio. I'll let you know tomorrow if it catches any.

I'm also thinking of having a fan blowing hard on me while I'm grilling.

We use a combination of 3 skunked cheap beers 12oz, 3 cups of Epson Salt, and a big bottle of blue cheap mouthwash.
Stir it up until the Epson salt is dissolved .
Put in a spray bottle and spray the area around your Patio or Grill.
Environmentally Safe, Pet Safe, And People Safe.
We have used it for 3-4 summers and apply about 3-4 times a summer on and around our Patio and grilling area.
I spray the grass also where we may sit.
keeps the bugs and mosquitos in check .
This mixture was 1st introduced on the Paul Harvey show years ago.
