If i eat this horrible stuff will it help keeping the little flying blood sucking little s**ts away from me ?
a friend said it will is he kidding me ? i think he just likes seeing the face i pull when i try it

You've gotta be kidding me, I know it tastes foul but never heard that one.
We just use Jungle Formula (to rub on, not eat
), never get bothered by the dreaded mozzies now.

Some people swear by this (supposed to be the Vitamin B content in it), however, I am a mozzie magnet and a Marmite addict (I eat it every day) and it doesn't stop me getting bitten! When it comes to mozzies, what works for one person doesn't always work for anothr - I have tried almost everything known to man and the thing which works best for me is the Avon Skin So Soft (original dry oil spray) but I know that doesn't do the trick for everyone either. It is honestly a case of trial and error until you find something which works for you - especially if you are one of the unfortunate ones like me who they seem to love! I also react really badly to the bites and invariably end up on antibiotics - I still have the scars from bites I got almost 30 years ago in Spain.
Anyway, the moral of that ramble is - if you like Marmite, give it a go, it might just work for you...

The best repellent I've used is Avon spray oil, must admit it probably tastes better than marmite but there's no need to eat this.

A lady at my work says eating marmite worked for her when she was in India last year but when she went to Thailand this year it didn't work.
I just use avons skin so soft dry oil spray and lemon & tea tree shower gel. If I'm somewhere with a lot of shrubbery I have a can of OFF in my bag and use that too

Some people will go to extremes !! Anyway Marmite is delicious
, do not wear too strong a perfume or deodorant, and buy the local lemon repellent, nothing better and much cheaper than all the gimmicks
