Absolutely not a joke - I would never encourage someone to do something like that if it didn't work. I have done this on myself a thousand times and although I accept it did not work on one or two bites from the thousands I have received over the years - it has worked very well on all the others since I was taught this method by a local in Jamaica. I am plagued by bites even if protected from head to foot, sprayed up and smelling like a brothel, nothing stops the little blighters from biting me and nothing is worse than the itch. I can only think you did not hold the heat close enough or long enough, but it certainly wasn't a joke. Sorry it didn't work for you.
