Anyone try this Vitamin B Patch insect repellant?

I just heard about it and it sounds interesting. I would love to be able to go just one day without being covered with chigger bites!

Did I mention I hate chiggars!!

That would be good to try out on a bear hunt where the mosquitoes can potentially carry you away. I wonder what sort of smell it elaborates

Our body's natural response when given excess Vitamin B1 is to excrete the excess Vitamin B1 through our pores. When Vitamin B1 is excreted through our pores it causes an almost imperceptible odor that masks the CO2(carbon dioxide) we naturally emit. CO2 is what attracts mosquitoes. By masking the CO2 you become unattractive to biting insects! The transdermal patch application is what makes the formula so effective.

Hopefully it just masks the CO2 and wouldn't be detectable by wildlife...at least not like current insect repellants.
