Anybody troubled with insect bites this years or do they just take a liking for me.

What species are they and can you recommend any good products to keep them away.

Thanks

I was bitten last year and have since tried odourless garlic pearls which so far have worked you can get these in most stores in the uk

I've done the 'Marmite' bit for about 2 years I think (Recommended by Mike Chislehurst)..
On a slice of buttered toast each morning on hols(in Carvoeiro) and not had a bite in all that time

If you don't like taste of Marmite, I think someone said its the 'yeast' in it, that fends of the little biters..so perhaps yeast tablets work in same way?
