If you eat garlic is it actually a detractant for mosquitoes? Will it kill them if they eat it?

Garlic is not supposed to kill them but if you consume enough of it where it comes out your pores,it will keep them away.If you don't want to eat it you can get it in capsul,or, you could boil 1 clove in a pot of water for 5-10 min.take a washcloth dampen it in the water(after its cooled of course)then apply it to your skin.you'll smell like garlic but,they'll stay away.

Well, if they like Mosquitoes, sure I guess. But, you can probably get them something better, like money or just a simple gift card and some money. (Money is always the best.) And, I suggest, not giving them the Mosquito. All in all, no mosquito.

Someone must have mixed up mosquitos with vampires...!
Mosquitos won't even think of eating garlick, they ONLY eat blood.

I've heard that, didn't believe it, and after trying it, still don't.
I'm quite sure that it's not going to kill them if you eat it.
