Stay close to dark or fleshy people. Mosquitos will concentrate there....this is a fact!!

Ugh, that was me, about a month ago. I took Benadryl and used a spray called Dermoplast. It did an okay job, but not great. I'd give it a B+. But my can is really old, and in the past (for things other than mosquito bites) it definitely deserved an A+.

The main, and best, methods I've heard of to stop mosquitoes biting is to simply use insect repellent sprays... I'm guessing you're not that big a fan of them?!? I know people, with sensitive skin, who are allergic to the sprays, and they make you smell a bit funny if you're on a night out! If it's the latter you're concerned about, I'd recommend drinking plenty of gin and tonic! The quinine in gin puts the mosquitoes of biting... plus, it's refreshing and low calorie!!!

In essence yes. But this came from Indian Lore and is still today so pardon (me) please if manufactured pills are not involved. The Indians knew that the mosquitoes were biting because they wanted the sugar in the blood.What they did for the season's peace, and what you can do is when Spring is immenent stop taking sugar in to your system.

If you take 4 to 5 Shaklee vitamin B-complex per day no bugs will bite you. So not only are they extremely healthy for you, not one mosquitoe will bite you. Not sure about all other brands of B-complex I only take Shaklee, because its all natural and no fillers of any kind. Go to their web site. www.shaklee.com

my family and i used to go to northern British Columbia every summer for holidays and the mosquito's and black flies were everywhere. we met a lady in a town called dease lake and she got us hooked on Vitamin B Complex. it made an incredible difference. even if we got a mosquito bite it did not swell or itch. i'm not sure if it was a power of suggestion thing but it really worked and i still take them to this day.

Garlic capsules help if you start to take them a good few weeks before you go on holiday, Avon do a really good after sun with a mossie repellent in it, I used it this year in Cuba and didn't get bit once by mossies, you can find Avon on line and send for some that way, good luck hope they keep clear of you and you don't get bitten.

If you want to go the natural route, then Garlic tablets are the answer.
It's not just good for your blood, but the garlic odour that goes through your skin pores, repel any insects & maybe some people...
I think there are other tablets for this in the chemist. Ask your GP incase you are allergic to any of the ingredients..

You can get rid of the mosquitoes by using pest control. Then you will feel free from the bite.
I found the detailed information at http://www.pests.in

I dont think there is a pill as such, but you can get the spray that you use. And a roll on, they work wonders!
