[QUOTE="Ouachita, post: 1366423, member: 16802"] I have no idea if there is any science behind the armpit method; never heard of it. I do know this to be fact..........wasp and bees do not bother me. I think I can count the number of times I've been stung in my life, without having to pull my boots off. It's very interesting to me why I and 4 of my 6 kids are not bothered by wasp, bees, mosquitoes, ticks, chiggers. I think body chemistry plays a part. My 4 of 6 were the recipients of my genetics more so than the other 2. These 4 of 6 are dark complexion like me, and you can tell I marked them well. I've a smorgasbord of genetics in my family tree, but mostly Italian, German, and Native American. My wife is predominantly Irish; fair skinned and beautiful, with what she refers to as strawberry blonde hair. All the boys (3), and one daughter took after me. The other 2 girls took after their mother; pale face white women. When we sit outside in the evening, my unlucky wife and 2 daughters are magnets for mosquitoes, ticks and chiggers, and they also are much more frequently stung by wasp and bees. I'm not smart enough to figure this out, but it is the truth. I notice there are several new forum members since I frequented these forums previously. After reading their post, I am convinced that some may have a logical reason for what I am describing. My pale face wife and I can hold hands walking through the woods or meadows. I'll not have an imbedded tick or chiggers. She will be covered if she doesn't employ the use of a deterrent, and then still, she will get loaded. [/QUOTE]
