Mosquitoes are attracted to first, our (and other mammals) exhaled carbon dioxide and then to other odors on the skin.
So, while in mosquito country, don't breathe out.
Some people have skin odors intrinsic to them that mosquitos like, thus are 'mosquito magnets' and are pretty much doomed, for others, avoid perfumes, including in shampoos, deodorants, makeup, etc..
The other recommendations mentioned by others above are all good advice.
