Insect bites...?!


Question:

Insect bites...?

i've just come back from a weekend of camping in the lake district and i'm covered in bites.

i've got about 30 bites all over my body (including my ears, which is very itchy and sore) yet my boyfriend hasn't got a single bite

why do they go after some people and not others?

what can i do (or take) to prevent this next time?

Thanks


Answers:

Take vitamin B6 they won't stop you being bitten but they will reduce the reaction that you have.
Invest in some Insect Repellent - Boots have a good range.
Some people say that taking Garlic Pearls can help - make sure you buy odourless ones.
I was camping in the Lakes at weekend as well - I have never seen so may midges!!!
