Default Mosquitoes --OOPS I goofed!!

In a previous (now closed thread) I stated the WRONG vitamin to avoid mosquitoes, it is VITAMIN B-1. As I stated before, there is as much info supporting that as there is debunking it. It does seem to work for me.
And as I mentioned before, CHECK WITH YOUR DOCTOR FIRST!!!

Sorry for the incorrect info on the previous post.

Brits eat Marmite, which contains some of the B complex, to ward off mosquitoes.

I have always thought I was very desirable to mosquitoes. They always seem to find me first and when they bite me they get all nasty and itch for a long time. My bites are always bigger and redder than my family members.


I cannot tell you how I love, love, screened in areas here in The Villages.

If I had to guess, GG, you have a negative blood type, maybe even O negative! Mosquitoes love me, too...
