Not true. In the Marines we ate sulfur pills. It comes out in your sweat. Mosquitoes stay far away. But everytime you break wind, it smells like the gates of hell have opened up.

Can confirm that as I’ve been using them for about two years with excellent success.

If I’d had “lots of beer”, I probably wouldn’t care. Heh.

But hanging scented dryer softener sheets around your neck; use two clips to place the sheets about chest high. The really scented ones work great.

It’s safe to say there is probably no other chemical on earth as thoroughly studied as DEET. If there was a problem with it, they would have found it by now. It was invented in 1946, something like that.
Nothing else comes even close in terms of repelling Mosquitos, and it also lasts several hours. West Nile, Malaria, and probably other diseases linked to Mosquitos are far more debilitating in any case. It does damage plastics, and nylon. But I’m not made of plastic, so I’m good.
