Once bitten, twice shy

Elder Son wondered aloud why he was being bitten by mosquitoes more than the rest of us.
I told him he tasted better.

"You're kitten-tested, mosquito-approved!"

Actually you're probably right. Mosquitos are atracted to certain things in the blood. Potasium is one of them, which is why I don't take Bananas when we go camping.

Tell him it's a compliment, that at least he doesn't taste like crap. Well, that's what I'd tell my kids. ;)

I read somewhere that if you eat a steady diet of foods that contain garlic, mosquitoes will leave you alone.

Which is also better than tasting like crap. ;-)
