How to Repel Insects Naturally With Vitamin B
- 1). Take 100 mg of B1 daily. Begin taking B1 vitamins two weeks before going into areas where mosquitoes will be prevalent. It takes two weeks for sweat glands and tissue to be saturated with thiamin.
- 2). Ingest 100 mg of B1 daily throughout the mosquito season. A steady regimen of vitamin supplements is necessary to maintain thiamin levels.
- 3). Use vitamin B1 patches. Manufacturers of the patches say thiamin absorption is enhanced when using trans-dermal delivery through vitamin patches. This method is recommended for those who have difficulty remembering to take vitamins. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for use.
