Buy some damn insect repellent and be done with it you idiot. I never heard of any thing studidier than spending government funds to find out how to get mostquitos not to bite. That problem was solved years ago. People use insect repellent but based on your self report, your body odor chases off mosquitos. Now thats something to be proud of. LOL

Hey, Jack S.

I wish your grand children and your children and your parents and grandparents all are plagued with mosquitoes, like so many in the world are:

Malaria infects between 300 and 500 million people every year in Africa, India, southeast Asia, the Middle East, Oceania, and Central and South America. About 2 million of the infected die each year. Most of the cases and almost all of the deaths occur in sub-Saharan Africa. At the present time, malaria kills about twice as many people as does AIDS. As many as half a billion people worldwide are left with chronic anemia due to malaria infection. In some parts of Africa, people battle up to 40 or more separate episodes of malaria in their lifetimes. The spread of malaria is becoming even more serious as the parasites that cause malaria develop resistance to the drugs used to treat the condition
