I’m 47 now and since I started enjoying beer regularly (must have been my 20s) I was always the one the bastards wouldn’t attack. That is, whenever I had a beer or two they would just go on annoying other people around and I could stand there with no protection and get literally 0 bites. If I didn’t drink beer, they would bite me too. Just a beer or teo was all it took for me, and I was free to go.
Not that I got drunk, mind you, I could drink 4-5 beers (half a litte) with no effect whatsoever, I developed pretty good resistance back then.
Now I don’t drink that much (if any) anymore and the nastards are eating me alive!
It was my opinion that the beer was pushing them away, much the same as taking antibiotics (we noticed that ehen people are takin antibiotics for whatever sickness, they would be spared). We always assumed it made blood “dirty” or otherwise non desirable for them bastards…
…and now this article wwants to change everything our numerou experiments showed us…

Were you a cigarette smoker? That seems to be a small deterrent.

You got a late start drinking beer. Work hard to make up for that. Cheers!
