Bugs most often do NOT like the following scents: lavendar, lemon, lemongrass, eucalyptus.
They DO like flowery and fruity scents, so don't use soap or lotion that they will like.
Use natural bug repellent with one of the smells that they don't like, or use essential oils. I learned all this the hard way!
Also, if you are vitamin B deficient, bugs might like to eat you more. So maybe take a B vitamin. And getting a little suntan help. Skin that has no sun is like fresher meat for them.
