This follows with one of the most effective mosquito repellents already in use today. A rotating fan.

It mixes everything in the room around so that the carbon dioxide, sweat, and everything else can't be as easily used to target you.

A good breeze, doesn't have to be that strong, really helps outside.

Also, mosquitoes aren't strong flyers, so they can't get to you if the fan is pushing enough force.
