mosquitoes bite?

I think the possibility of a mosquito biting you is directly proportional to your blood type. I have read somewhere that mosquitoes can "smell" your blood type and they prefer some people with a particular substance present in their blood stream. Or maybe, the you may have eaten a banana. Another trivia had revealed that eating banana would make you vulnerable to more mosquitoes.

It's because of the food you eat. Mesquitos smell your blood and they bite people who's blood smells like something they want to eat.

it depend on blood...if ur blood is sweet in taste,,,mosquito bites u and if its not sweet,,,mosquito do not bites U.

I happen to be one that the mosquitoes just love to bite on...I have tried all kinds of rubs to deter them and i still get bit...I do not know why some people they like more than others...

I also wonder about that. It maybe because of the type of blood of the person. My husband always gets bitten by a mosquito and I don't. That's why when there is a mosquito and my husband in with me, I don't have to worry about mosquito bites! (",)

Unless I have overlooked the responses above mine, there is one important factor missed. If you are generating more body heat, the higher chance is that you will be bitten before the next guy in the same room. Mosquites also hate windy places - because they have trouble maneuvering :P - so if you stay in an area when the air is relatively still, you will make an easier target.

i know it sounds weird, but i rarely get mosquito bites, while my housemates often have them! i don't understand, i keep telling them, maybe the mosquitoes know who's being good to them and who aren't, lol! i don't kill them, i just swat them away.

Mosquitoes just seem to be attacted more to some people than to others. I have always been the kind of person who they are attracted to. It is a good idea to spray yourself with mosquitoe repellent when you go outside. Also, a good thing to stop mosquitoe bites from itching is to rub vinegar on the affected area.

I'm not sure why that is...they love me, if there are any mosquitoes out there, I'll find out just being where they are. I've heard that there are supplements you can take that actually repulse them, but I can't remember what they are right now. I think it's just something in people's blood that the mosquitoes are after. Whatever it is, some people have more of it, or less of it.

mosquitoes bite everyone. The problem is that some people are sensitive to its bite while others are not maybe because they have tough skin. The irony I've discovered is that mosquities tend to disturb those people who are sensitive to its bite
