Sometimes home remedies beat everything else.

Mosquitos won't touch you!

Bob, a fisherman, takes one vitaimin B-1 tablet a day
April through October . He said it works. He was right.
The odor the tablet gives out through your skin
(YOU can not smell it) repels mosquitos,black flies,
no seeum's, and knat's. It does not work on stinging insects.
Hasn't had a mosquito bit in 33 years. Try it.
Every one he has talked into trying it works on them.
Vitimin B-1( Thiamine Hydrochloride 100 mg.)

Sorry all but this one is total I take a B-100 daily and the skeets still feast on this beast.

The real question is why the boater has been taking B1 for 33 years. I thought B1 is for like madhatters disease or malaria or somethin.

Don't know about the boater.... but I totally understand Justhangn's addiction now.

The only thing I've ever found that actually kept mosquitos off (besides DEET) was one of those electronic devices that you wear on your wrist. I could never hear the high-pitched sound but my sons could.

Again, they're both different. Neither is a real vitamin. B100 is a combination of all types of other vitamins, real and not. It has like 10% of B1.

But B1 is the scary one though, again not a real vitamin. I was kidding about the madhatters, but I did look it up and it is taken for malaria and thiamin difficiency related diseases including something called beri-beri (what they call it in the east) or Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome (what they call it in the west).

Beri-beri in some language means sheep, named after how a person walks after infected, shaking and trembling incessantly with their legs bucking up in front like a sheep walks. They aren't able to sit or lay down, and then they die.
