I suspect it to be an urban legend, though if you are _holding_ a peeled
banana, insects are likely to want to investigate this sweet-smelling
thing in your hand. But I am told that taking alot of brewers' yeast or
eating alot of garlic will keep biters away. And thanks to the amount of
garlic I seem to be eating, I haven't seen any vampires recently... ;-)
