Eat Garlic — roasted or raw — and they’ll leave you alone. It’s worked for me for the past 35yrs, at my Nursery/Garden Center/Landscape Contracting Operation. I’ve not been bee/wasp stung or mosquito bitten.
My theory: if you smell like garlic/onions, we’re friends. If you smell like Listerine or toothpaste or body wash, be gone vassal!
I love garlic but mosquitos love me. It probably makes me taste better.

As will virtually every other living thing :).
Garlic doesn’t work for me, no matter how much I eat. I prefer DEET, 100% if I can find it.
There are studies that garlic will repel ticks, but this study says not mosquitos.
I have always found garlic to be good repellent.
For mosquitoes and people.
A whole clove cooked in soup works great. It flavors the soup and makes the whole clove easy to eat.
Lots of beer attracts them...
