Bob, a fisherman, takes one vitamin B-1 tablet a day April
through October . He said it works. He was right. Hasn't had
a mosquito bite in 33 years. Try it. Every one he has talked
into trying it works on them. Vitamin B-1( Thiamine Hydrochloride
100 mg.)
If you eat bananas, the mosquitoes like you, - something
about the banana oil as your body processes it. Stop eating
bananas for the summer and the mosquitoes will be much less
interested.
This is going to floor you, but one of the best insect repellents
someone found (who is in the woods every day), is Vick's Vaporub.
Plant marigolds around the yard, the flowers give off a
smell that bugs do not like, so plant some in that garden
also to help ward off bugs without using insecticides.
"Tough guy" Marines who spend a great deal of
time "camping out" say that the very best mosquito
repellant you can use is Avon Skin-So-Soft bath oil mixed
about half and half with alcohol.
One of the best natural insect repellants that I've discovered
is made from the clear real vanilla. This is the pure Vanilla
that is sold in Mexico. It works great for mosquitoes and
ticks, don't know about other insects.
When all else fails--get a frog
