Kite Patch makes you invisible to mosquitoes
This lightweight patch can keep blood-sucking bugs away and could prove key in the global battle against malaria.

Don't believe it. I'm so tasty, the bastards bite me through puddles of anti-mosquito sprays.
How long do they 'last'? Oh, I see - 48 hours.

When I clicked on this topic I was hoping it was going to be like the nicotine patches they have for smokers. Need a patch to get through the non-windy season.
Ending Malaria is cool to though.

On a serious note...malaria kills about 660 000 every year.

Best thing I've tried for fighting the little bastards is to eat a lot of garlic and spicy food.
