As for eating garlic...I think it's effectiveness all depends on the individual. Everyone's body chemistry is just a little bit different. Personally, I have found that regularly eating raw garlic cloves really does keep biting insects away from me, and I know one or two other people for whom it has the same effect. This is why it isn't backed by science: It doesn't work for everyone.
