i was just thinking about how i have never been bitten or stung by anything...even when others around me are being chomped on like mad

and i wondered what it was that makes my blood totally unnatractive to things but others blood very attractive...its just the usual O positive type.

i know nothing about this sort of thing but i wondered if it was something that could be used to create a sort of 'deterrent' ... perhaps if some peoples blood contains some sort of component that differs slightly from others could it be extracted and used kind of like a 'vaccine' that helps stop people being bitten in the first place, and so lessening the spread of other diseases like malaria etc...

or is this not how it could work? ... is it nothing to do with my blood? perhaps its my skin? or something else?

just a thought...

cheers
