Louisiana ..just wipe on & go..Great for Babies

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.
Vitimin B-1( Thiamine Hydrochloride 100 mg.)

If you eat bananas,
the mosquitos like you, - something about the banana oil
as your body processes it.
Stop eating bananas for the summer and the mosquitos
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





Fight West Nile ..
pass this along to all your friends in skeeter land
 
Does the B-1 also repel ticks? I just pulled on off me today. First one this year, but I seem to get a few each year. I hate those things. Where would you put the vanilla? spray it on? I might get mistaken for an icecream cone.
 
I have heard all kinds of ...this is the best, and tried them all until one day while doing the postal service vehicles in Violet, La. we were almost picked up be the damm little things and I remembered I always saw a squirt bottle in all the vehicles that had replant on it so, sprayed it on. This stuff is serious. The little bugs wouldn't even come near us. Only thing written on the bottle is repellent issued by the U.S.Goverment. After Katrina, we had the job of cleaning out every postal vehicle in lower Louisiana and was told to throw away everything in them, it was no good. Guess they didn't realize the bottles are sealed. I have me about 100 of these bottles. Darn stuffs great, and NO they are not for sale.......sorry.:D
