This is completely true. I live in the middle of an old-growth forrest, and the place is teeming with little nasties. A few years back, a friend of mine reccomended using scented candles, and I can attest to the fact that they, and other creepy crawlies, absolutely hate the scent. For the last few years I have been, largely, bug-free.
