Flies kept following me?

Question:

I was at football practice and these flies kept following me! They were like 3 or 4 feet above my head! i tried to get away but they would never leave me alone i dont think they landed on me they just kept flying above me! I shower every single day i wear deoderant and i wear cologn too! it doesn't make any sense maybe its because of the sweat on my head? or the smell of my pads idk because i was practically the only one that had flies flying around right above me. What the h e l l? and again i take a shower everyday! don't joke around

Answers:
You know, some people just naturally attract certain insects, and scientists have no idea why that is. It is most likely a combination of your sweat and hormones secreted through the skin (pheromones).

It doesn't have anything to do with being dirty or smelly. My boyfriend is the same way - insects just love him, and he's an extremely, even obsessively, clean person who has almost no body odour even after exercise.

If you are still a teenager, it may be that the problem will fix itself, because your hormone levels are in a process of change. It's possible that the flies will go off you as you get older.

In the meantime, you just have to add insect repellant to the soap, deoderant, shampoo and cologne you are already wearing!

Sweat and cologne. Cologne sometimes attracts different bugs, actually, rather than repelling them.

See if your shoes need cleaned out with some warm water and detergent. That could help too.

Try washing your pads! Maybe its your smell not that its bad. Other than that i don't know.

perhaps your sweat stinks, your armpit and feet stink during football practice which attract the flies, even if you take a shower daily. or perhaps your cologne attracts the flies too. why not change your antiperspirant and cologne? why not take a shower before practice? if all fails, you can't do anything about being flies magnet. who knows, you'll land in the guiness book of records? cheers!

you stank

has this happened more than twice? if it just happened once.then you stank at that time..sometimes you can't even smell how bad you smell lol..there's nothing to worry about
