Don't know where you got your information from. They are without a doubt the most horribly itchy things ever! And not a lot stops the itch either. The only way to make sure you don't get bothered by these little buggers is to start taking vitamin B about six weeks before you go tropical. There's something in the smell that puts the bugs off. This also applies to all other bitey things (except probably spiders and snakes - LOL).
