I was wondering if anyone has a recipe using sulfur, honey and lemon juice. You take by the mouth to keep mosquitoes, red bugs and etc. from bitting you. My husbands mom used this recipe and but I can't find mine. Any help would be appreciated.

This is an update on my original request. I managed to talk my mother-in-law out of the recipe. So here it is:
2 tsp. Sulfur (found in pharmacy section at wal-mart)
1 tsp. Of cream of tartar
1 pt. Of honey
you mix all of the ingredients. In a pint jar on take one tsp. Everyday for 2 weeks. My husband really believes in this stuff. Has taken it for years and now he gives it to our kids. Keeps off red bugs, ticks, mosquitoes, and etc. Hope this helps everybody

Simply by cutting off the match heads and swallowing 3-6 it prevents mosquito bites and other insects. Ive been doing this for years. My dad taught me this trick as a kid. I swear by it.

Editor's Note: I'd never heard this one before. I checked and people do take sulfur pills, use sulfur powder in their shoes to prevent mosquito bites and chigger bites.

I sure do wish I had that recipe for you, because I would love to use it myself.

If someone does send it to you, would you mind posting the recipe?

Thanks very much
