They are not too keen on citrus plants or trees, hence the likes of citronella as a deterrent.

Where I live I'm surrounded by orange and lemon trees (= FREE fresh orange juice and lemon for G&T year round!) and here even seeing or hearing a mozzie is a rare enough event that it gets commented on.

Reproducing that in an Urb or more domestic environment could prove challenging though.
