Subject: RE: BS: 1st mosqitoe of the new summer
Although they're jokingly referred to as the state bird here in New Jersey, I haven't seen one yet. They've lost their taste for me anyway, maybe it's the medications I'm on. Anyway, this may be an old wive's tale, but I read somewhere that eating bananas makes you more atractive to mosquitoes. I'll never know, as bananas are high in phosphorus and potassioum and forbidden in my diet. Someone else will have to do the experiment.
